Ok...I'll admit to being a little over-flammatory with my initial post but I persist that we need to work more closely together when it comes to scheduling events. There have been two fairly significant conflicts between F18 and Hobie Tiger events in the last year where a lack of communication for all involved is probably to blame. I think it shows great planning that the Tiger Worlds date has been selected for three years but how long has that date been available to other event organizers?

As for the comment that we will only loose 6 boats or so...that's a lot! We have been expecting to have a terrific turnout (and still are) of 20 to 30 F18s at Spring Fever but loosing 6 out of 30 is still a 20% reduction in attendance due to scheduling! We will undoubtedly still have a great F18 turnout but our sport needs to keep the competition on the water instead of between events for attendance.
