Having used the MKII for a year and after talking with other sailors with the MKII I have a slightly different view to Torrid and Wavedancer.
The big advantage with the MKII is it is far easier to see how the sail is set because the kicker, outhaul and sheet change make more obvious changes to the shape of the sailand you will therefore learn more quickly.
I also believe you are likeley to find the MKII more enjoyable to sail because of the way it handles.
I would not bother with a replica until they are copying the MKII but personally feel we should all support our class builders and sailmakers.
