So this section of the forum needed at least one post.
I used to sail on an evelyn 42 "Heartbeat" (RIP - Hurricane Ivan). Great boat. That's the boat that made me want a 32, once I got a grown up job

For those of you who get to the results I can tell you the Sagitta (3rd place) is a J44, Majic and Power Tripp are Tripp 40's, Screaming "O" is an Olson 40, and Painkiller4 is a Sydney 38.
Though I think that Pterodactyl and all the Evelyn 42's are great boats, the modifications (I believe they all got the Debroth keels) did hurt the boat's light air abilities. In the Chesapeake with its light air summers I don't know how well the boat will do. They don't really sail like the 32-2's since they were modified.
