Does anyone know of a "23 hour of lemons" style boat race? There is Puddle Duck racing, but they strictly limit the design. To encourage novel designs, I'd like to see only two limitations:
1. Boat with rigging must weigh less than 200 lbs
2. Boat must cost less than $500.
Like Lemons, it would be a claiming race (i.e. the boat could be purchased by event organizers for $500).
Other categories:
Easiest to build in a San Francisco apartment
Best liveaboard
Best blue-water cruiser
Best station-keeping
Thoughts?
