Richard Philips has prepared a Review of Equipment used at the FD World Championship 2011 on Lake Garda together with an analysis of the ages, heights and weights of the FD helm and crew who participated. This Review is for the benefit of FD sailors and IFDCO as a tribute to Cle’s work and as part of my contribution to the 60th Anniversary of the Class. FD GBR 377 www.esailor.co.uk
