Just a question, in the long history of Hobie sailing, has there ever been another boat that wanted to race against the Hobies?
What about when the P16 came out, or when the N5.2 came around. Who were they racing?
When I bought my 5.2 in 1990 and attended my first race, I never remember being told I couldnt compete, and Im sure I was attending a HCA regatta, I remember all the Hobie swag being given away.
Ive been told at my home club there was a Hobie regatta that had 200 boats, early 1980's, Pam Walker Memorial I believe. Surely there wouldnt have been any need for HCA to allow misfit boats, but where did they all race?
