I really don't understand how they can vote for TWO one-man dinghy's (Heavy, Finn and Light, Laser) and NOT vote for a Multihull! Are they that insecure that they cannot stand the thought of a much faster platform out there near them?

They kept the 100 year old Star, the 50 year old Finn, and the 30 year old Laser, yet no Multihull? [censored]? I knew there was a reason I never thought it was worth the time and money to pursue Olympic racing...what a bunch of snobs, and on old, slow boats no less.

(Yes, I know the Tornado is an "old" design too, but it has recently been upgraded to include double traps and spinnaker, at least they keep up with changing times and new technology, which is something the Laser, 470, Finn and Star class have not)
