Sometimes when you need to clean the garage, you take everything out and start over. So the HCA did that and now needs to keep a close eye on what's happening everywhere( I think that is happening). What needs to be remembered is that there are bylaws and a process that can work to bring change.
The HCA is still and should be primarily focused on the Hobie product, but also consider our fellow sailors and find a way to work with them. I think the idea of having guest formula or one design boats at our events just makes sense if handled correctly.
I agree. I don’t think we are ever going back to the open fleet at HCA regattas but I do think we will continue to see a slow and thoughtful course correction that looks a lot like this. That's my hope anyway.
