Matt, I still wonder how healthy the class is. I only see part of the picture (Division 11), but the H20 is not a functioning class there and it causes me to wonder if that is happening a lot around the country. If Hobie is selling a steady amount (I doubt if any manufacture sells large numbers of any single racing cat model), then I understand Hobies reluctance to consider change.

The thread was part theoretical thinking (its winter, you know) and part practical. My guess is the dagger boards while a change that could only be done with the manufacture as a real model change to the class, would dramatically improve the upwind performance of the H20. Of course, I can add a spin, which I am considering, in order to better compete in the portsmouth racing in which I find myself.

But where are the pockets of Hobie 20 strength?
