That's not accurate. At all.
Are you saying that the Viper F16 was NOT selected ?
That the Hobie 16 + spi was not a contender ?
That NAHCA is not using these very same Hobie 16's with spinnakers for two official Hobie class events straddling the Alter Cup 2009 ?
That somewhere, somehow, some person in the "Hobie Way of life" decided that the boats would have to have their spi kits removed before they could be used in the Alter Cup 2009 event ?
That the comments made by the involved parties themselves on the main forum are lies ?
What do you think is not accurate ?
Reporting the facts about a truthful situation or paraphrasing the comments expressed by the involved parties themselves in public is not tearing down a class, my friend.
It is simply reporting the way the cookie has crumbled.
Sure, this is a painful situation. But I'm not the one to blame here, nor can the situation be rescued by coming down on me; despite the fact that that will make some people feel alot better. I am really no factor in this.
Sorry mate,
