Lets keep trying Eric ,-there are numerous interested Formula 20 sailors out there spread all over N A and several thousand potential existing similar production 20 ft cats out there as well .

The powers that be are resistant to it though --that is reality .

Nacra inter 20 owns the 20 ft w spin cat market,--they have no reason to support a F-20 ,--though they do support F-18 ---go figure .
Most winners or leaders of small groups of Inter 20s like winning in brand class in their area and do not want change , same with Nacra groups , after spending 15 k on a boat I can,t blame em , they like their brand class group just the way its been for 2 decades,--- WITH decline in the sport with brand only edicts and events .
The small groups that race P handicap like their small group and favorable rating number , and are resistant -
Handicap timed rating PROPONANTS SAY THEY ONLY HAVE 15 BOAT EVENTS .- wonder why most go to H ?
good large class racing ,--only formula will replace it , not handicap racing .
Hobie has a brand only edict - the Fox will not sell for several reasons ,-H people are all supposed to buy a F-18 tiger ,-a Formula 18 imported from EU , yet raced in NA in H ONLY EVENTS ?

We are all just big spoiled kids playing with boats ,-each by their own rules -
but I think the sport should be more than that or be dominated and controlled by brand class edicts or brand class only rule.

Many ,many sailors agree and are purchasing and joining other formula classes --F-14 F-16 f-18 AND f18 HT CLASSES NOW in NA .

people are fed up with brand class edicts and realize this is the future of the sport .

Jon ,the organizer of the Atlantic 1000 stated on the distance race forum that they would like the race to be Formula 18s and Formula 20s in the future when there is a Formula 20 class --
I,m just one sailor ,--how do we get it going .

We need to find inexpensive ways and suppliers to allow sailors to modify their boat to an equal spec and potential speed of the I-20 -and encourage large numbers of 20 sailors to add spin snuffer systems and actively start and seek Formula 20 area classes and events .

THANKS eric ---- F-20 ---it is ALIVE !
