Let me see if I understand your statement correctly ......
So the IWCA doesn't want to follow "SMOD" as they have found that the IWCA sailors can purchase sails cheaper from Independent Sailmakers ...... and have also discovered that customized cuts for their wieght/sailing style seems to "level" the playing field while "measuring in" in terms of square area.
Hmmmmmm ........
So I'm expected to pay extra $$$$'s for a product from a manufacture that doesn't meet my needs while there is a manufacture that will make a product thats cheaper, improves the racing, and does meets my needs ... just so I can claim "SMOD".
I thought "SMOD" was to lead to cheaper, more cost effective racing/sailing ..... I'm really confused now .....
