The I-20 is a mondernized version of the M-20. It is a sloop rigged scow with a spinnaker. The boat was first built at Melges Boat Works, now Melges Performance Sailing. The boat has two bilgeboard and two small rudders. After a couple years of experimentation, the class settled on its current rules in 2002. The new rules permitted a larger, asymetrical spinnaker and a carbon fiber rig. It is currently made by Windward Boatworks. In 2005, Melges brought out a new Melges17 to compete with the I-20.
