Notes: Olympic class between 1908-1952 when it was replaced by the International 5.5 Meter.\nDimensions are approximate since this is a development class, originally built to the International rule.\n400 are thought to still be in existence with about 300 still in racing condition.\nPhoto: Nancii Bernard \n
