Pete - Forgive me, but I don't understand what you feel you have to take care of in regards to the F18 class? I was simply offering up an explanation as to why the turnout at both regattas was low for each class, respectively. Did I find the GYC event unfriendly? No, I always enjoy regattas hosted by GYC. My only suggestion for the regatta was for it to include the scoring option to sail only two days (like the Spring Fever scoring) for those classes not competing for a National Championship. However, this is not a class issue, but a decision of the Organizing Authority.

I get the impression that your entire purpose of starting this thread is just to create a rift between the two classes. I honestly think that there is more underlying your intentions here and I would suggest that you take this up with the individuals involved and not make this a class thing. It will benefit neither class to continue these unfounded attacks and accusations. We should be fostering positive relations in order to continue the growth of sailing.
