Redshank Evo26

Hi all
Looking at possible replacements for my Evolution 26, when I sell her, the Hunter F1 has come up as high on my list. I would welcome comments from those who have sailed one, crewed on one etc.
We sail from Teignmouth in Devon, generally fairly flat seas (although it has its moments!). I notice that the two main fleets are both inland, this makes me wonder how they behave down wind in waves? There is a video on youtube of one burying its bow and falling over!
On the plus side one did the RTI race in 2013 when we also did it and was 2 mins faster than us in 8 hours of sailing, so pretty quick for a 22 footer.
Your thoughts please.
Stuart.
