I would also like to hear how HCA is killing you. The Ontario Open (Rochester) has been getting around 50 boats for a number of years now and will continue to do so.
The HCA will have a Youth Nationals this year. They have a youth grant program. They will run multiple Guest Expert Programs. They will have a Womens Nationals. They will run Women on the Water (WOW)progams this year. They will run 8 Nationals this year. The H16 event will have over 60 boats. The Hotline is a fantastic newsletter(thanks Matt B.) There are over 1000 HCA members.
There are a lot of hard working peole that put in many hours to make the above items happen.
So again I would like an explination of how this hurts sailing.
