Yes Bob you are probably right inclusion is the way to go to insure #'s at some regatta's can be increased.Still not sure what the long term solution is for getting new sailors into the fold.Pretty sure going to a regatta with 10-12 Hobie 16's is not the recipe for generating a lot of attention.
We're looking to you for that one Mike
Remember Bob I am low on the Totem pole,it will not be myself making any decisions only recommendations.I still think it will require some revised Bylaws (which should be no big deal).
