I know I have seen Coca Cola branded H16 boats that come from the Mexican Worlds? or ISAF Youth games? and nobody has been forced to take the stickers off.

And, according to class rules the boat has to be sailed..."as supplied by the Hobie factory." <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />
