Great idea for another regatta. Those photos show that it doesn't matter how small the boats are -- the important thing is to have BIG camera lenses so the boats look big in photos and on TV. Don't they do that in the movies?

Anyway, something else: I got the impression from somewhere that after the first two years of using stock boats, the idea is that individual designers and builders could come up with new boats specifically for the LAC, designed within the F-18HT formula. I don't know whether that makes it more appealing from a development standpoint or not.
