Hi David,

I am so very disappointed.

I spent a lot of time gathering input from the Tiger sailors on that very subject (F18 racing) to give to the NAHCA...I have no idea what they concluded from it but will try to find out.

While I am not defending Hobie Co. actions, I can understand that they are business. Pepsi is not going to financial support an event where Coke products and merchandise are being sold and consumed, so why would Hobie. I get that part. I might not completely agree with the way it has come about, but I can see their point.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out on a local level.

In any event, it looks like I’ll have a lot more time to devote to the F18 class.
