Ohh yeah I forgot all those A-cats sailors are sailing with hugely curved beams and we all know that class ain't happening !
That BS works both ways guys !
Those rules makers were just a little more then overly concerned when they thought up that rediculous rule. That or scientifically challenged.
Hey, I find white hulls undesireable ! Shall I put in a proposal to ban that in the F18 class rules.
Apparently everything goes. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
I mean really, the shape of the hulls and beams is largely unregulated (arguably a significant point in the way of performance) but I can't have more then 15 mm prebend in my mainbeam (totally irrelevant in the way of performance !).
Somebody has got their priorities mixed up here.
