I think anyone racing at the Olympic level should be able to jump on any cat and make it work. A long time ago I said they should do the Olympics like we do our Alter Cup. Get one manufacturer to 'donate' 20(?) brand new...what evers...but all the same hulls, sails, masts, ettc. and do a round robin type thing. Then sell the boats after the event. Wether it's some F16, F18, Hobie 16, or a 20' something, they should be able to figure it out in short order.
