Would running the Olympic regatta like the Alter Cup be a bad thing? Have 1 F-18 supplier for the games. 25 boats from Nacra, Hobie, Loday White, Capricorn Ect. for the games. Boats can be sold after the games to offset the price for the manufacturer, as well as a say 100 boat licensing agreement for a "Olympic F-18". Boats are exchanged daily between competetors and the 2 set of sails are held by the teams. the sails can be OLY AUS 001, OLY USA 002, ect. And the boats marked with the olymipc rings on the hulls. I'd buy one.


This is a bad thing for the people owning similar boats...their re-sale values plummet when the market is flooded with low-cost/lightly used boats from events.
