Whats the difference between an ODay and a Stuart?
The hull and keel shapes are identical, however, the interior was redesigned. The most obvious changes include no ribs, an additional bulkhead aft of the seats, enclosed compartments under the side decks, molded shelves forward, and a shorter, more forward cuddy, all of which results is a stiffer boat with more cockpit space. The redesign was done by naval architect and Fleet 5 member Jim Taylor (who races an ODay). See class history for more information.
