I was reading all the discussion of the Olympics allowing cats back in on the main forum. I know that the boat is still yet to be determined. I was thinking if they were to pick an F16, wether it be viper, falcon, or the nacra thing, would that be good for the class? In the long run would it be good for the builder? Talking with Matt it seems that most of the boats he sells are going to local club racers and the likes. Not sure what the viper numbers are like. But my thought is that if one of our class boats is choosen then the development of that boat is stopped since i believe the IOC would want a SMOD boat. So the F16 fleet progresses over the next few years and at some point the olympic boat is no longer the new cool boat and less normal people buy it. Is that good or bad?
