I can only think that GRF doesn't understand how dead and unresponsive the old system had become.

Truth is, GRF up until now had no idea how the system functioned, nor really cared until it appeared to be going totally haywire as it has just lately. In our world it never worked so we didn't even bother trying sailboards being so wind responsive.
Having said that I voted worse, because I feel it is being gerrymandered to suit inland water values AND the idea of getting clubs to alter locally is flawed for all the reasons previously discussed. Most of you sail on inland water so you would think it's getting better, it 'suits you sir', so now all that leaves me to do as an option is either put up or shut up, or flog the Alto and buy an L3k and go pot hunting this season.. They'll love that down at Hythe

Do it, you would at least be living up to your own hype that folks buy boats purely to win handicap races.

 Quite agree, writing moaning threads about PY racing is on par with threads about why you didn't win the Christmas do raffle!
If you want serious racing, join your class association, get your boat measured, and attend/support some open meetings.
Stop moaning about a game of chance, treat it as practice for the open meetings!
