The Nacra F-18 teams have never been a big player in this SMOD event and with the NA's on the west coast and the CA champs in the NE it is no surprise that there was little to no interest from the Nacra F18's for Fort Walton event (I did try, who wouldn't want to spend a week at FW in the fall). Like Mark said as the F18 fleet continues to mature in the US SMOD events will continue to faid for the F18 platform.
