The most popular design from this era was Spencer's Mk7 built in plywood but by 1971 most successful designs had much less rocker and flatter sections aft to promote planing.

Full teams were expected for the series and by October 1969 all Australian states except NT and Tasmania were entered. New Zealand had eight entries with two entries each from Great Britain and the US and one from New Guinea.
