The programme consists of the following events:--

There is, however, a very great difference in the yacht's weight in tonnage displacement. The smallest allowed for the 80ft vessel is about 130 tons, and the minimum for an 97ft bont is 104 tons. For every foot added to the length, five tons must be added to the yacht's weight.
Thus the new Endeavour will be 4ft longer than the present Endeavour and 20 tons heavier; that is, she will be about 181 tons instead of 144 tons. The scientific problem to be solved is Will the langer, heavier yacht go faster than the shorter and lighter boat, both to be driven with the same sized sails?
In smaller craft the answer has been favourable to the long, heavy vesales even in light winds.
