The Nacra 5.5 uni had the same history. The boat started out slower then a hobie 17 (74.0) and raced for several years at 74.5 It was very popular in CRAM as a one design and they did not turn in data.

Eventually they did turn in data and the number dropped to 69.5 or so.



But do not N17's sail ate the Alter quals events?

This is the underlying problem with returns based systems, people can abuse/manipulate them if they so wish; RYA PY drops boats out of the list if they do not file returns. Does USPN do the same?
