The next America's Cup?
The Sidney Herreshoff designed double-ended ketch Arion one of the first fiberglass sailboats and her wooden near sister Walter Greene clawing to weather. Arion was resurrected by Falmouth Mass boat-builder Damian McLaughlin, who was so impressed with her performance that he built her sister, but this time out of wood.

Down East and how to get it
How to get your J/37 (or other boat) to Maine in a hurry. Hoist the MSP asymmetrical and go.
Update - The owner sends the following note:
Hi MSP,
The sail is fabulous! First time I used it I walked away from a friend who usually kills me downwind. Thanks again.
