Jeff, I think this upcoming Texas event is the single regatta selection for the 2014 ISAF event.

5.5 The first place winners of the 2013 ISAF Youth World Qualifier Regatta in all disciplines
using the same equipment as in the USYSC will be automatically invited provided they
apply per NOR 5.1 and 5.2.

Sarasota looked like a quick fix to get sailors for this season.

The difference moving forward is that you must be invited to compete ...It is still a bring your own boat regatta. The major carrot is that the winner of each class will represent the USA in 2014.

I agree that including the multihull chaampionship as just one of the youth classes was a great step forward.... no more seperate but equal status.

Moreover, US Sailing is encouraging top junior sailors to consider the other classes with the resume and cap approach.... This will be great for multihull sailing if more juniors jump into the game... Hopefully, they stay in the game long after their junior careers end.
