If anyone thinks that a mixed team can't sail a high performance cat at the pinnacle of the sport, I'd say they need to get out more, try some different classes, and not make it about themselves and the sailing they do or have done.
I have no doubt a mixed Multihull team could sail a HP cat, but I do doubt the depth of talent. I guess if the discipline is created, then we may see more female involvement including some class jumping from monos, which would not be a bad thing
Another option may be to create male and female disciplines on one man/woman boats. This will not increase the athlete quota.
