Sheesh, Terry, take your Prozac and lighten up. What did I say that seemed hostile or negative? I've raced against Bob's boat and was impressed and have said so several times. I was serious that Bob can offer us a professional sail designer’s guidance by telling us his about successful sail plan.
And it DOES seem odd that his first suggested rules would ban his own successful design.
You need to go sailing or kick your dog or something.
