on a similar topic to the last thread "age and gender of F16 owners"
on reading some of the posts contained in that thread, I was given the impression that the majority of F16 owners and sailors are in their early 30's and beyond.
first of all, does this mean that the F16 class is severely lacking a youth sailing scene?
and second of all, correct me if I'm wrong, but does this make me (at 15) and my skipper (17) the youngest taipan/(nearly)F16 owner/sailors around?

I'm posting because I'm interested in what the views of some of the younger sailors are our there, and am therefore not hoping to begin radical younger vs older sailor arguments.

anyone who is younger than us, or knows taipan/spitfire/F16 sailors who are relatively young feel free to post, as we are genuinely interested in the aims/views of those sailing craft similar to ours, at a similar age.
not really looking at hobie sailors here because they really have nothing on F16's.
Thanks,
