All,

As someone looking in from the outside. As the Current Inter 17 EU is grandfathered, can I add a bigger mainsail so that I rate (on SCHRS / Texel) so that I am the same as an F16 and then join the Open F16 class ?

In my Current spec, I am approx 4.5% SLOWER (107 vs 102 on SCHRS); if I add a mainsail at approx 16sqm I then rate to 102; can I then come and Play ?

Does not really sound like a good idea for the F16 class IMO.

I think that the F16 class needs to become a true Formula class and only allow boats that are F16's to play at F16 events. If you want your buddies (or nom buddies) to come and play, run a handicap event at the same time. All you are currently doing is diluting the class.

I can understand at the beginning, you wanted as many as boats at opens, I suggest this is no longer the case as you dilute the class.

Allowing the Cirrus in is Bonkers IMO; it was built after the rule, you cannot allow it in.
