Interestingly, a poll taken during the meeting asking which boat out of the F18, H16 [no spi], A class, and Tornado would be preferred by those present as the Olympic cat revealed a preference for the F18 Tiger.


Firstly the preferred cat was a one design F18, not a Tiger. Considering the (VERY) large majority of the attendies were from the Pittwater Cat Club (Hobie Club) it was never going any other way. The Tiger would be a great choice for Hobiecat and would see their values jump quiet a bit while knocking the resale values of the other class and effectively hurting the F18 concept. This is not what the F18 class needs.

I am sure the Hobie guys would not be so keen on the idea if it was the Nacra Infusion that was selected.
