...one can make the arguement that the slate of events ended with six dinghy classes filling the ten possible slots for the games. It is here that you can attack. You are not singling out one class, but looking at the entire slate of events and stating that it is extremely unbalanced and that it does not justly represent the sailing world and community.



Correct. I believe that, at least in the media, a consensus already exists about ISAF's final equipment choice being far from ideal.

Our position is that we are concerned about the proper representation of sailing in the games. Our case is that at least one important type of boat isn't there when it should be, for a number of reasons.

We must not target any secific class to be replaced simply because this is not our primary problem, just a natural consequence of its rational solution.
