Yes, we (the Active Wave Class, knows as Intl Wave Class Assn. IWCA) were un-invited. That is honestly the truth and everyone knows it.
The only Active Wave Class in North America was invited to the Mega using the rules the Active Wave Class have been using for a number of years now (at least 10 years, I believe).
And then we were told we had to sail stock everything. Most of us have aftermarket tramps and some have sails, so everyone in the Active Wave Class opted to not buy Hobie Tramps, Hobie Sails, and decided to go elsewhere.

Would have liked to have been there.
Again, Sorry,
Rick
