I raced International 110's out of Scituate in my youth, knocked down a number of times, but thankfully never came close to end over end. Great boat after a hurricane and a good stiff breeze, it's a 24 foot surfboard, hold on and hope you can control it enough to not be bailing for 4 hours.

Note to self: Do not keep the cooler holding the "chum" in the front of the boat!!!

You don't see many of those any more. Such a unique boat

Some of my most vivid memories to this day are out on the trapeze, sailing solo on a moonlight summer night between Scituate Harbor and the north river or Minot light depending on the wind direction. I actually bought a 2nd one and restored it after college and sold it after my first was born, no time to get out much after that.
