Rick
Don't you have to remove the Hobie only Regattas from the schedule page since this site is for all cats.

How do we sign up for NAMSA?
If all the fleets and divison's that don't like NAHCA's new rules can sign up with NAMSA things will not change that much. The only big change is we can vote and write our own rules without a manufacture telling us what to do. The power is in the numbers.

I would not turn away the X boat friends I have made.
The Hobie way of life (turning away friends and new sailors that don't sail the right boat)

Rick, I would appreciate it if you could place a NAMSA banner on your website in a prominent area. When in the forums, at the top of my screen is a box with the Catamaran Sailor banner to the left, could you possibly put a NAMSA banner to the right, and make it open in a new window when clicked on?

At the very least it would save you from posting the NAMSA information over and over and over again

This is Catsailor.com site.., not NAMSA. [Re: Sycho15] #28607

Keep in mind that NAMSA's site is theirs, and ours is ours.
I will work on getting a more prominant link to them, but at this time it is really easy. On our welcome page, click on the drop down index box and you will find NAMSA listed in alpha order.

Dave is right Rick,
When uppergrupenfurher Miller sends out his SS Stormtroopers, you are probably on the top of the list because you have done more than any other person to promote catamaran sailing for ALL people.
In order to protect yourself I reccommend that you ban the use of the word "Hobie" on your website and install software that would automatically replace it with "H" any time someone tries to post it.
Henceforth we should only use the terms "H" boats, "H" Class, "H" Division, "H" Fleets, "H" sailors. etc.
Even your logo suspiciously resembles a HOBIE CAT and may subject you to legal action.

I think you need a more obvious NAMSA link too.

P.S. Isn't this alot like the "mikerowesoft.com" lawsuit?
