Hi Mark -



In the case of this year's Qualifier (at least in Area D), you don't have to choose between your one-design class or open Portsmouth. You can do both. It's just a question of me sitting in front of my laptop a little longer while everyone else is drinking beer and discussing skirt length.



Your idea would be useful is designing a multihull ladder, though - other folks have suggested something similar. Looks like that will be one of my next pursuits based on the amout of e-mail from sailors in this Area. Hmmm.



Thanks again -



John
