...but linking new sailors, Tiger sailing and existing Hobie Classes...in some fuzzy way... Is this really your argument or your contribution to the discussion?
Do you really want to argue or even suggest that Hobie 16 sailors nationwide should want to shoot down a proposal that Tiger sailors in at least one of only two regions a) WANT and b} their HOBIE yacht club's want since it will keep them financially solid ...Because it will undermine the Hobie 16 fleet in their regions of the country??? W TF !
Hell with this reasoning... Why stop there... Why not just neglect the Hobie 20 class and force those guys backwards to Hobie 18's... or all the way back to Hobie 16's. ...
If you believe that class preservation is achieved by not supporting competing classes... then you would be better off by denying starts to Tigers period... Start with those areas that have none in 2010 ...
Is that the argument you or anyone wants to make?
Really, Mark? "I'll take reading and comprehension for 100, Alex."
Did anyone else read any of this into my post???
