Is the design of SWORD based on FRIGATE?
A In a way. The hull of Vernon Appleton’s FRIGATE was well prepared for the 2004 championship and was leading when the rig started to disintegrate in the 2nd and 3rd suit conditions prevailing. We had not been responsible for making the rig! But by then it was established how it compared against the other designs present. The new design has been tweaked to improved on FRIGATE’s performance profile. Interestingly, after the rig had been thoroughly re-built, Vernon went on to win two open events, one in light and one in moderate airs. FRIGATE remains capable of good performance where acceleration and high off wind speeds are not critical factors.
