I get the cultural differences! I am trying to look forward and be realistic from the USA perspective. ... ISAF has 10 slots. The nominal plan is to give TWO slots to catamarans....

Cough Cough... Now... were talking flying pigs!

Using the criteria you read in the ISAF report... What is the case for Men's multi, Women's mult in each country.

And are the catamarnas ahead or behind of the other disiplines who also want the slots.

So, where are we Today... What can we do and by when to improve the case...
If the plan is to count on ISAF feeling badly about eliminating the multihull.... that's not a great plan in my book. But maybe the rest of the world can make the case and I am simply too pessimistic or ignorant of the facts... I hope so!
