I am kinda thinking the following

1, GC next year - UK ?
2, Fleets grow in the US, Aus and the Far East.
3, As local fleets grow, there can be "nationals" / Euro's / Asian champs / Aus / USA events Annually
4, Then move to a GC every other year.

For me, I cannot really afford (time and money) to travel "far away" every year and so would not be able to attend Aus / Asia / USA in following years.

Trying to balance a job in The City, a young family (that need a weeks throwing ourselves down mountains in the winter) and everything else it just getting difficult.

USA in 2009 could be handy for me as I've friends who have just moved to Alaska for 4 years and so could combine a trip to them with some sailing (and send the wife and Kids home first).



Difficult for us as a class to get the balance right, and I feel a GC every 2 years would be a good idea for a little while.
