I'll pass onto you something I learned in a College Business Marketing Course ....
"The Customer is always right .... even when they aren't."
It's that simple .... and the IWCA sailors are the customers, so they get to set the rules ....
.... Of course if HCA/HC-Europe/IHCA do not feel that the IWCA rules are consistent w/ their (Hobie's) rules/goals then of course they do not have to supply what the customer wishes ..... but my experience shows me, someone will.
