"F16 the best of both worlds" - Robi

"Race the wind" - Tikipete

This will be used on the t shirts I am currently working on.

I guess for the back of the shirt I was thinking of something a little more fun and eye-catching, to sailors and non-sailors alike, like:

F-16
The enLIGHTened Catamaran
No fat, no sugar, no calories
Fast, fun, addictive…and HEALTHY

OR

F-16
BEWARE: This cat may be addictive

This will be the class slogan, not only used for the T shirts.

"Race the Wind" sounds really nice, but boring.

"Best of both worlds" is perfect in the context of the class talking about how the F16 compares to other cats and when people know what it means (one-up or two-up on the boat). But out of context on a T-shirt, who would know what "both worlds" means? Probably only class members.

Okay, I have definitely run out of my two cents worth. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />

Need more input from more people.

Right, but it still needs to be INTERESTING and EYECATCHING.

Like Hog's Breath Beer has that slogan, "Hog's Breath is better than no breath at all."

If you have a slogan like, "BEWARE: This cat can be addictive," you can actually have a whole series of "ads" on different shirts based upon that slogan. And they won't really have anything to do with sailing.

Could be a great ad campaign for the boat.

How bout.........F-16 Have it your way. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.

"F16, Fun and Function"

I always envisioned the next slogan for a Blade F16 promo-add.



You've been challenged; Choose your wapon ! (On front)

Blade F16 ! (on back)

Wouter

But should there be shirts just promoting the Blade?

How about....
F16...
Yeah, it IS better than your boat!

or...

F16...

"Race the Wind" is about Horses <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Yeah, and I see it is also the name of a sailing board game and the name of an organization dedicated to finding adoptive homes for greyhounds, and also the name of a made-for-TV movie about a blind man.

Obviously, others thought it was a great phrase, too. Guess we will have to come up with something more original -- something that can be unique to the F16.

Still trying to think of a serious suggestion, but in the process the following crossed my slightly twisted mind -

F16 - not an ISAF-approved class.

Just kidding - I'm sure there are a variety of views on that issue. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

How about:
F16...
Bob Curry loves them, so should you!

EDIT:
forgot that there are moderators now.... I will think of this as a test... <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Formula 16 - "Looks aren't Everything"

The cats in the class are good looking - so that should get people talking.

"Formula 16, by sailors for sailors"

Rationale: Rules was designed by sailors, describing what they wanted themselves. Boats are buildt by sailors, and they are a sailors dream..

Do we need a slogan. People will only take the <urine>

F-16
Formula for Fun

Second! <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

How about:

"F-16: So bad... we require moderation."
