Shields, the obvious choice for one-design racing…
The facts speak for themselves. Shields are simple boats. All Shields go the same speed given basic preparation. The Shields learning curve is short and the racing is very tactical. The boats live in the water on moorings or in slips. There is no time-consuming dry-sailing; between races the boats are always ready for a fun-loving day sail. Shields require very little maintenance. There is no arms race in the Shields Class. The Class limits sail purchases to one per year.
And….last but not least, the Shields are classic, pretty boats, admired by all…
