You loose the formating but only 4 boats made three or more events in the year.
Not much better in the Carolina's either
Nothing .. Nada... no F18's in the mid Atlantic
So.. Hope springs eternal that the world will see the light and buy the boat... AND go racing. But until then.. You might actually want to sail against somebody on HANDCIAP
I figure every one can count to 4 when they cross the line to see how they are doing in One design.
Other sailors might say... ah the hell with it.. we will race those F16 and Nacra 20's on handicap.
Who in the heck claimed one design racing was huge? Our numbers are down dramatically everywhere in our area this past year in one design and handicap racing.
I do recall saying that I much prefer one design racing as it is a much fairer contest but I never made any claim that it was huge.
