Vertical Cut sails on two, likely makes them pre-1895?  Or they are using the old rags.

Likely pre 1895....I think this is a Beken photo....Guy posted this over on an America's Cup Site and is trying to find out which boats these are...I thought these might be 15m class boats but I have no idea...

Funny - saw this on another site (facebook of all places)....He must have posted on a number of sites...seems someone else thinks they might be 15m boats as well - the 40 raters also seem a possibility. I looked through The Glory of Sail" and didn't find the shot....
