Why not just pick a class F-18 for example. then each country chooses their representitave. Then when the sailors arrive at the olympics they are given a new boat to compete on. What are we talking about, 20 boats Each team gets their own sails to maintain and tune. The boats are rotated every day. Could there be a better way? you can set your spreder and rake in the morning put your sails on and your on equal ground. The boats would be supploed by the builders. Im sure if you went to hobie or nacra they would jump at the chance to have olympic boats. After the racing they can be sold as olympic special edition boats with new sails. F-18 manufacturers change every event so no one designer gets eliminated or benifits from the campain. Kind of like how the alter cup is run. 2012 tigers 2016 infusions 2020 capricorns ect.

Would that be a viable proposal?
