I'd imagine you would have a lot more success numericaly holding the event in Europe whilst the class is still in its infancy. After 12 years and the F18 class exploding internationaly, we are only now seeing an F18 Worlds hosted outside Europe.

I would recommend hosting the event as close to Texel’s dates as possible, hoping to attract international competitiors using Texels ‘pullin power’.

Good luck and may you have fair winds.
