I don't have a N20, but sail on one a lot. I agree that, in the end, a bunch of N20 sailors got together and made up the open 20 rules. My point is that at least someone is trying to keep it alive. are there more than 7 boats elsewhere that are organized enough to try to keep the SMOD N20 alive? Don't you need manufacturer support to keep something SMOD? Anyone want to state that Nacra is interested in supporting the SMOD N20?

And I believe that the provisional rating for the open20 is the same as the OD N20.
