Whatever Mark. 3 F16's top the leader board even on the most active racing scheme in your neck of the woods. F16's are in more then halve of the Alter Cup qualifiers and doing very well indeed. The F16's are racing, we just don't believe in a 5 boats or less "own start" One-Design fleet, so most of the F16 racing is in open class regatta's.

You are entitled to your opinion but saying the F16's have "no history of going racing" is just plain BS and you of all people know that. You are known to work out adjusted race result with F16 rating = F18 rating on more then a few occasions.

With respect to the N20 class, I think that the owners taking things in their own hands in the only viable path for the future. Keep the OD status but get rid of the SMOD status. Going OD is still some ways of going full formula (boxrule)
