Macca,

You are a well known and well respected sailor, who until a few days ago had only posted in the F16 forum a few times,

In fact 17 posts (I think, I may have slightly miss counted) since 19th Dec 2005, until 10 Feb 2008.

Over the next few days, you come into the F16 forum and post 52 posts of a total of 75;

Now, I agree that you and Wouter have had a bit of a slanging match about 3DL sails and seams and it appears some harsh things have been said via PM. Perhaps time it's to agree with Wouter that it might be a good idea if you don't play in the same bit of the playground.

But you have also been hammering along about the same thing (the weight of the F16) and people who sail the boat keep replying that they are quite happy with the boat at the weight it is.


Now, I think it is time that the current owners of F16’s to agree to disagree with you.

You want the F16 to get all lardy and difficult to drag around the boat park by us single handers (does your vision of the F16 even contain the single handed option?)


We, the current owners, whom have the right to vote on class issues, want the all up weight to stay the same.


time to call it to an end, you want one thing, the owners want something else
