Asleep? You have got to be kidding. If you miss a wave, miss a shift, miss anything, you will be out the back of the fleet. The boats are all the same and the only way you can do well is to be right on top of your game. Asleep?

The competition in the Wave Fleet is absolutely awesome -- anyone can win at any time.
You cannot buy a victory with a better sail, better this or better that. A newer this or a new that.
All of the major regattas rarely see any one person, sail or whatever dominate.
This is pure and simply one design sailing at is level best.

I have sailed every type of hot, high-tech boat introduced to mankind and I can tell you that I have never had more fun and had better competition than I have had in the Wave Fleet.

I know many folks don't think of the Wave as a REAL boat, but believe me it is.

Look at history, by the way. Do you remember when the Hobie 14 came into existance. I was like you back then. I was sailing Sharks and Tornados. I remember yelling at a H14 sailor, "Get that little rubber ducky out of the way!"

Yet those little rubber ducks produced some great sailors, i.e., Bob Curry, Carlton Tucker, Hobie Alter, JR., Jeff Alter, Wayne Schaffer (sp?), et al

So, please don't knock the fastest growing catamaran class in America.
