Thanks Alan
<br> Would be very interested to see the results for each -
<br>
<br>-Have enjoyed watching the newly formed U K cat sailors reconfigure and reorganize cat sailing there , They sail under the ISAF and sometimes Texel and can be very helpfull ,-Check their excellent web site for more info ,--http://www.catamaran.co.uk/--
<br>-Believe some basic questions could be directed there and to Colin at Sailwave ,-most have been worked out .
<br> There would be some translation , a few variations in boats to adopt for use in the U S . -Sounds like you got it right --102 is also on the ISAF for H-20 though it is called Hobie 20formula - there is a catagory for Formula 20s at a 94 rating for the -the Inter ,-Fox ,-Storm -etc.
<br>-
<br>-Would like to see distance racing particularly go to these rating systems ,-as it much more readily allows the evolution into equall Formula type classes .
<br> Hope the Worrell 1000 in the future adopts this philosophy,-do know Mike W is very interested in it,--It would be much more interesting to see a number of mfg. cats of equal length ,beam weight and sail area, H Fox Inter 20 -etc,- to all line up together and drag race for 1000 miles .It would be much better for the sport as a whole , and connect us a bit more with the rest of the catsailing world .
<br>
<br>-Mark -enjoyed meeting you in Muskegon ,--are'nt you glad we mentioned the drysuit .--Do understand there is a tremendous time and effort invested by many in Porthmouth and do appreciate all those who give their time effort and energies ,---let us know how to work with them on this ,-
<br> The more we all understand rating systems in application to cat sailing and racing the better .
<br> Thanks again -
<br> Carl
