| And fewer complaints? Pete, I guarantee that no matter how things are done, someone is going to complain. I would like to argue against that statement! Where do i log my complaint? All kidding aside, JW.. even though i am not a racer, it is uber obvious that your time and energy has been a huge asset to the entire sailing community, and I personally thank you for all you do for the sport.

Cairns FNQ | So, Hypothetically, if we had reps from Australia, New Zealand and possibly Europe, We would have a World Multihull Council, which would possibly replace our representation to the likes of IOC instead of ISAF??? It's possible using Skype...... "or whatever" 1. Scrap the travel plans and conduct the meeting via skype. 2. Add a discussion of the Catamaran handicapping system. At least call for a vote/no vote of confidence in the portsmouth system.  Dude! You issued the invitation and I commend you for it! Make the system as transparent and democractic as possible. You won't necessarily get any more participation, but you'll get fewer complaints.

No, IOC looks at ISAF as the representatives for sailing. They are all members of the good ole boys club, and never underestimate the good ole boys club! 2007: ISAF boots multihulls from 2012 games 2008: Multihulls are the medias golden kids at the games 2009: Extreme40s takes off 2010: AC deed of gift sailed in multis 2013: AC to sailed in multis. Talk about being out of touch. I have this vision of Jerome kicking kicking himself in the nuts out of frustration  | | | Re: Multihull Council
