I don't know if there is enough demand to support it, they already tried it once with the Inter 17, and Hobie tried it with the FX One, neither class lasted very long.

I think we are seeing a consolidation now to fewer classes, Wave, Hobie 16, F16, F18 and A Cat.

The F16 is a 'compromise' type class, right in between the Hobie 16 and F18, wich still allows you to race solo when your crew bails on you last minute, or if you can't afford an A cat, or if you and your crew are too light for the F18.

As they say, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
