Hm, reason I posted the links was the new initative, drive and focus I could read in there. I think there is a lot of good stuff happening and I know I would like to see the Tornado reinstated as the olympic multihull.

I dont neccesarily agree with all of the ideas and I have my opinion on some of the more prominent personalities, but it is all water under the brigde now. No point in lingering there.
What is important is that there is a strong will to refresh the class, bring in more sailors and not roll over to die. I for one will always be very close to getting back onto that boat.
