Hey Dave -

At 130 pounds, I'm plenty strong enough to deal with the Nacra 20, but don't weigh enough for any of the skippers around here. Guys like me and a lot of girlfriends and wives are glad to see the F18s growing. The F18 has a more manageable spinnaker for the fairer sex, too. Surely there are some women up there that would crew for you - or find some of those guys from up your way that I used to race on 5.5s back in the day. They were all less than 150, I think...

They need to do an advert like -

F18 - putting the women back into regatta parties for spinnaker fleets everywhere.
