Can also confirm that Jeremy Evans is on the case. Might be worth emailing him and giving him the link to the petition

I have to wonder why i am a member of the rya, for my money what do i get? If I sailed dinghys to the level i am competing at in f18s, I would have a youth squad to train with, regatta support and coaching. Whilst the f18s did have this it was dispanded over night, with the result of people losing out after buying the selected boat(hobie tiger) over other designs. I am currently considering ringing up the rya and asking how I cancel my membership and I going to suggest on here that if there is not a radical u-turn by the RYA THAT ALL CAT SAILORS CANCEL THEIR MEMBERSHIP IN PROTEST FOR OUR TREATMENT by our governing body. |

Nice to see future and past Olympians signing it. Just a prompt Helms get your crews to sign it as well and crews get your helms to do it. On a rough estimate we should be able to get over a 1000 signatures that way. So lets make it more. WELL DONE TO ALL THOSE INVOLVED AND THOSE THAT HAVE ALREADY SIGNED |

Before going off the deep end about the RYA proposal to the ISAF Annual Conference to drop the cat from the Youth Worlds, has anyone looked to see how many GBR Youths actually take part in the various classes at the annual Youth Championships (the primary indicator for choosing the GBR Youth Worlds teams)? Looking at the attendances for the last two years, the Hobie had seven entries in 2007 (8 in 2006). Compare this with the 29er (49 in 2007, 33 in 2006 despite not being an ISAF boat), the 420 (29 in 2007 despite not being an ISAF boat, and 41 in 2006), the Laser (36 and 38), the Laser Radial (100 and 112) and even the RSX (16 and 17). In simple terms, GBR Youth sailors don't seem to want to sail a cat at Youth events, so it seems like a sensible proposal from the RYA that the Youth Worlds is sailed in boats which are popular in GBR, otherwise the RYA are really not representing the interests of youth sailors in this country. If the RYA just wanted Youth medals, they should probably encourage ISAF to keep the cat, as GBR are good in the cat, and not many other countries sail them! But no, this proposal seems to be in the interests of a majority of Youth Sailors - well done to the RYA! Issues about Olympic classes are a whole different ball game.....
