Actually I was the one who got the rule changed for the rotator arm to be relocated to the base. I set mine up that way before the Tybee in 07. Not knowing it was an infraction, I was threatened with protest at a later regatta. Then went through the channells of the Nacra class (one guy actually)to get the change. I doubt if they will let us shop hoops from outside sources. It would be less revenue for PC.
