In any event, I think it's remarkable that we can have this sort of debate and still all show up at an event and race heads-up... where we frequently revisit the debate as soon as we get off the water. Pick your poison.
Well said! Kiel Week, the major event in the north-european sailing community, is just one month ago. However, it's not such an important event that pros show up in our class (possibly except for the polish team which have been olympic games participants), and 1st was an Infusion and 2nd a Capricorn. No Wildcats were supplied to Germany at that stage, 3rd were the polish on Exploder.
We had one day with winds in the 25kt-region, and I had big, big problems - actually, I quit that day. Since then I wonder how much is owed to the boat and how much to my inexperience (this was my 2nd ranking list regatta ever ...)
