I agree with you.

I was trying say that NAMSA should not have have anything to do with the governing of any class.

Or certifying boats as class or formula compliant.

We should promote multihull sailing in gerneral without taking sides. EX: No pro or anti Hobie, no pro or anti Formula.

Yes, I think NAMSA should function as an advocate for issues that affect multis. NAMSA would be a "big voice" at the table. As you said, to speak out about discrepancies or failures in our sport. And to speak out FOR issues that need our support.

While NAHCA has stubbed its' toe many times, and certainly isn't perfect, I believe we should model much of NAMSA like it, except be for all multis.

The greatest success of NAHCA has been the "Hobie Rules" whereby a person attending a Hobie Points Regatta anywhere in the US would know what to expect.

I believe that a system of "NAMSA Certified" regattas would help the regatta organizers and sailors alike.

Perhaps evolving into a NAMSA Points Championships.

This should be structured such that NAMSA Certified and Hobie Points can co-exist within a regatta.
