Good feedback.
Here is where I am now:

Discus 2b

ASW-27


You missed the LAK-17A, with 15M tips I didn't have any trouble staying with
(and frequently outrunning) '27s, comes with polyurethane paint which will
outlast the gelcoat on most '27s, you can get one for less than the cost of
a decent '27, and you'll get a set of 18M tips for free...
