From Kirt:
"We need some strong leaders in the class who are hardcore SAILORS who happen to love the idea/concept/boats which fit in the F16 class- whether they want to race, cruise, distance sail, are professionals, semi-pros, amateurs, kids, etc."

OK, so here's what we need to do:

Step 1: Buy (or build) an F16.
Step 2: Show up to sail it.
Step 3: if you can't buy or build one, organize an event.


So Mark, when are you buying one or help put on some regattas up by you? You know the next F16 N/A's are going to be held at the WRSC, right? I'll bet they could use some help setting it up.

Well Mark?

Cricketts...


And from Mark's rant above: "Class culture is bottom up.... NOT mandated by Wouter and the founders."

Last time I checked, Mark, you are the only one in this debate who is neither a class member or F16 owner...so take some of your own advice and let the Class Members decide, from, as you say, the Bottom up!
