1 - Get US Sailing to stop taking $50 a head from the US Multihull Championship Regatta forever! A reduction in fees won't due!

2 - Increase the Rolex sponsorship money from $3000 (which is almost all given back to US Sailing through their imposed fees) to $15000 so the US Multihull Championship can be a proper championship.

3 - Change the US Sailing Staff culture from a "How can we extract revenue from our membership" to a "How can we help financially and otherwise?"

I'm sure there is more, that's just off the top of my head.
