New women's Olympic boat

The moth could put its foils in upside down if it wasnt foiling conditions making it a good light wind boat.

MPS womens Olympic boat its bad enough Kit beating me

Originally posted by laser47 I love foiling moths (doesn't everyone?) they should so be in the olympics

Really?
Remember the fuss getting kicked up around the more well funded nations developing better europe rigs? (the main reason why it was dumped in favour of the radial as I understand it) what would happen if that was unleashed on an all out development class I wonder...

The only option would be to freeze the moths development (is that really gonna happen?)

...Or to take one design and splinter it off as was suggested earlier to let the moths continue development but have a onedesign hull/rig/foils setup for the olympics. Whos going to want to sail what is effectively a totaly outdated moth in 10 years time when the main fleet has moved on and is doing the same thing but faster and with greater ease.

Originally posted by laser47 plus apparently you can adjust the moth for different heights so no stupid height bias

Run that by me again? You know the 'height envy' picture was a joke, right?

The best thing for height envy seems to be the sliding seat. When you're sitting on the end of that it makes pretty much no difference how short or tall you are.

The moth does give you plenty of scope to customise the rig to suit you like any box rule and indeed all the less restrictive one design classes.

Just use thwe same boats as the men.  Why?  Well women are striving for equality, let the loverly ladies have it at the Ollys's

[changes mind, straps jet pack onto back and lights blue touch paper and waits for it to launc.................

(idea from left field)

As it looks like the sailing in China will be light, any country fancy entering women in the Finn/Tornado etc as they will be lighter ?
