Jeez, Zealot. Why take that tack? Are you in North America? If so, then you already know there was no Tiger one-design nationals last year... and I don't think there's one scheduled this year, either. Tiger sailors are either on 16s getting ready for Fiji, or are headed to Texas for F18s. And, honestly, I don't think any of the Hobie sanctioned events (or the fleets and YCs that host them) would turn a Hobie away, do you? Are you going to snipe at someone flying the Hobie "H" now? <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />
