Bernard Smith's Amazing sailboats, reference site on the pioneering work that led to Paul Larsen's Vestas Sail Rocket 2

Paul Larsen cites Bernard Smith's seminal work the 40 knot sailboat as his inspiration for creating the ultimately record breaking Vesta's Sail Rocket 2.  Paul and the team suffered a multitude of setbacks in their quest to claim the short course outright sailing records but kept doggedly to the task and were finally rewarded with success easily surpassing the old record and raising the bar for future challengers.
