I was just reading the IHCA news letter and next year at the ISAF youth worlds the H16 will be introduced with spinnakers. I am trying to get more information on it but the performance benefits sound great. I think also at the 2004 worlds they are talking about having a spinnaker event, separate from the main open event of the H16 worlds. Also the Hobie 16 Trapseat groups has had great success with the Trapseat Spinnaker. So it looks like spinnakers are coming our way so watchout.
