Cat sailors have no powerbase and as such organisations like RYA can just ignore us if they want too. The rest is all politicking, trying to do what they want and NOT look bad.
But I fear that when given a choice between doing what they want and look bad or coming across the bridge towards the multi's then they will still choose the first, hoping the bad feelings are isolated and will subside eventually.
Basically we multihull sailors go nothing.
It is like Stalin said when he was informed that the Vatican was rallying support against him, he replied :"How many divisions does the Pope have ?"
We will be getting nowhere, or get at max a delay of execution, unless we start forming some powerstructures related to multihull sailing (divisions).
