Four Stars

Sprit, midified bow railing and bunch of other stuff.  Rob macmillan from Q Newport was involved with John
Four Stars was profiled in Sailing World after they won the pro division (Gibbs Hill?) in the 2006 (?) Bermuda Race.  She didn't have a Sprit, though, but ran asyms off an oversized pole. The sprits and smaller genoas came in about 2010 and a different 44.7 did very well that year in the Bermuda Race (St. David's and Class 6 (?), also using big asyms, including a code 0.

47.7 would work also.   
 
Hiya B6,

Or you could dare to be different and keep the same beam as the 47 whilst realising the benefits of a 40 WL length.

And you get to go storming past even 47.7's at anything lower than 70 TWA.

I've been flat out calculating freight and insurance costs for multiple international enquiries, I thought Covid-19 was going to supress the market....   

I know I know, buy an ad.... :)
