Franck, Normally intelligent people can see marketing when they see it.
Nacra also claims that by Infusing their hulls they are stiffer and stronger, but I have yet to see you bash them for such claims.
Besides, if we can save weight by using paint, and then use that extra weight to build stronger hulls that last longer its better for customers, and that is what the class management should be encouraging!!!
What is of great concern to the members of the french association is that you claim to represent their best interests, but its very clear you are abusing the voting power vested in you by those members to push your own agenda.
I just point out, like others, contradictions and double speech.
Infusing hulls doesn't seem to break F18 rules.
The basic question here, is (any as you affirm) paint do not increase performance vs gelcoated hull ?
At least there is a doubt. TC people did not find consensus. Here I do admit in the doubt the World Council choose a conservative way for the clarification (no extra rules).
Way which is just confirmed by ISAF.
I try to expose ideas, decision and people work (TC, WC and now ISAF), that's why I do precise to be crystal clear I'm part of it.
Macca, I'm sad that each time there is no ideas or fact in front of mine, you use personnal attack.
Would you be as kind as to expose what do you mean by "own agenda" ?
I've been elected two times (2006 an 2009) and you know what ? As treasurer, I'm the bad boy who always ask for money ;-)
In 2006 they were 90 french members, in 2011 there is 280 french members.
This is a team work success and passion shared, which make me happy.
So please Macca, let's stay in ideas and fact field. F18 deserved that.
