So reading a few posts, and knowing it might have been discussed before, but I will attempt to start the conversation again..

With a little adjusting within each class, "we" could very easily gain a fantastic set of boats which can effectively race against in a "class" without handicap.

Thinking:

* Aero 9
* D-Zero
* Blaze
* Phantom
* RS300
* RS100 8.4
* Farr 3.7
* Laser EPS
* Contender
* A new class built specifically for the BOX rule?

All currently based around an approx. current handicap of 1000 and certainly in different condition each class will rise to the front.

What we need it the classes to agree to a BOX rule and potentially a 'committee' built to adjust the classes to even them out through different means over a period of time.

Everyone likes different boats, but it would help sailing grow knowing that you could have 200+ boats attending a BOX rule nationals..!

Thoughts?..

I can see this as a rejuvenation of the 'Sail Fast' group of classes for the smaller SH classes on any list. Which I'm sure would welcome the opportunity to mass together to create big enough turn outs for open meetings.
