These are public meetings.... I personally listen to anyone with something to say on the matter... I have been somewhat surprised that nobody comments on the minutes... they do reflect the progress and we work very hard on them.

The Silent Majority that I refered to.... got more then they expected with ol Dick Nixon ... and perhaps.. not what they wanted.... Being silent has some costs.. so... Speak now or hold your peace! Send me an email... private message or start a discussion.

The only way this works is for a consensus to form!

US Sailing MHC collected the survey... It will be published shortly.. Before you look at the summary...consider the overarching questions. I am looking for the insights the sailors have. Think about what's the meaning of elite Sailor and WHAT is the proper balance....before the survey is released.

As Bert announced... Provided boats are no more... Clubs with a fleet of cats don't exist. So, we are in the world of BYOB.
Examples of BYOB championships are:

Woman's keel boat championship BYOB with charters..every two years.. OPEN. J/22 (36 boats)
US Disabled Championship... BYOB... OPEN. (lots of divisions)
What will Multihull championship look like?
