Dave,

Those are the only ones I would want it is just that some units that don't cost very much have other options and would make them not legal. A team could not use a garmin 201 because it has some systems that are not legal but only cost $125 much less than a legal system. If they are going to write a rule about cost there are just no facts to support it. I would also like to see the facts on where distance to start line and mark location has made a team better than one that does not have it on beach cats.

No outside info - that was actually a rule. He was getting info from his wind sensing lasers though.

RESISTANCE IS FUTILE!

Had to lighten up this thread....

Cause it has gone WAY off course!

If we want to talk about GPS's, how about start another thread..cause GPS's don't belong in here.

This is a thread for the Canadian F18's!

Mike,

I think we are all in agreement we just don't know how to write the rule to include different systems.

I thought the Canada F18's were over

Okay Dave just for fun I'll turn it back on you, show me evidence where those types of devices don't improve your starts.

The way the process will work is the technical committee will write up the rule for these devices present it to the WC and then the WC will vote. Hopefully the WC will poll the fleets and vote in such a way the repesents the wishes of the fleet.
