Hello Fabrice, <br> <br>>>The f 18 class rules are to restrictive! <br>This why i think a lot of people are keen to get involved in the F16HP. <br> <br>Yes, I get interested mails from time to time. <br> <br>>>To have a class where you can be as well 2 up is good,so you can split the cost (or take your partner out!) <br>I could see that you base a good parts of the rules on the 18th. but it is a good idea to looks at others ones as well to take good idea. <br> <br>Actually we do. And as you can see we have incorporated several new aspects like rated sailarea etc. <br> <br>>>Finally, yes the hydra is fairly fast but it is build with old technologie,strong but way to heavy. <br> <br>A few year back I looked at the possibility to fit the Hydra hardware on two timber Taipan hulls,maybe that is an option for you ? <br> <br>>>I am looking forward to the futur of the class. <br> <br> <br>And so are we !! <br> <br>Wouter<br><br>
