I'm sorry if some feel i should not have posted this on the F16 forum but here in AUS up to 50% of the F16 class are Taipans (my own boat is a F16 Taipan)they regularly sail within both classes here in AUS.My boat is a fully compliant F16 and can not be sailed within the Taipan Class rules but in saying this there are a lot of Taipans in Europe and the USA and Singapore that would find this information helpful as they are still Taipan class compliant but choose to sail F16 and regularly check and read this forum.

This was never intended to back any other discussions on other threads just to provide information that a few F16 Sailors asked for.
