I take a bit of a different view. I think that the boats should not be posted because:
1. The manufacturers hire professional teams to skew the results.
2. Some sailors are force to buy one particular boat because the Hobie Class Association is so strong in their area.
What all this does is lead the F18 class down the one design path. How many well designed catamarans have been killed in this manner? Having one dominate boat or a class association in your area which forces to pick one boat undermines development and the whole formula concept.
We will figure it out anyway.
