Sailboat Speed Comparisons
Portsmouth Yardstick is a rating system so different boats can race and supposedly the best skipper will win. It's a good way to see how fast different boats go around a triangle course.
They've got hundreds of types listed and rated.
I've written up some observations illustrated with videos here
