ASW20 or LS6
And if you make a third generation , polyhedral outer panel and blended
winglet like Keith Ashman's A7 - you get a quite competitive 18m ship. In strong conditions A7 has been able to pretty much match the JS1s - and that IS saying something... Not bad for a 20 year old design. I don't know what could be achieved with the LS6 because I have not seen any examples of one being modified to the same degree.

Modern tweaks on the 20B render a surprisingly competitive glider in 15m. Ask UH, it goes. -Evan Ludeman / T8 -- Bruce Greeff T59D #1771 & Std Cirrus #57 |
