You'll spoil it for us if you don't spill, we'll makes something up. One question, what are they made of, I do so hope they don't think they'll take the Solo on with tupperware.. Time for a new thread? Edited by iGRF - 22 Oct 13 at 9:46am |

let the rampant speculation take hold whilst those that know the real story stay quiet! Maybe it's not for taking on the Solo, maybe it's a "big Pico" (or big Q'ba, as this is RS) that Nessa was calling for the other day?

Opening paragraph, single sentence:
The 10.2 and 8.4 fleets sailed together but with separate results.
contrasted to the 'vote' to change class rules for Championships where the classes would start separately and count as two separate classes. |

So have they changed their minds or are they just ignoring their own rules?

The event complied with the class rules, in that the fleets were scored separately, although started together. The question this raises is, what was the point of splitting the fleet then? They start together, there's interference... guaranteed. Are the racing each other or not?
And I guess a deeper concern, why after this long, are the numbers not really there for a healthy fleet, never mind the two the class seems to have forced through rather prematurely? Anyway, Getafix will be along in a moment to tell us that only 3 entries for the 10.2 fleet at the End of Season Champs (which replaced the Inlands) is 'not news'...
C.1.2 (ii) In all Championships, where the two classes are started together, a boat’s score for a race is that achieved only against sailors in the same class. Edited by yellowwelly - 15 Nov 13 at 11:25am |

Big mistake to do anything other than sail together, ignore the sail size, as long as the sail number is the same, sail windsurf style, use whatever you like whenever you like (if you can come ashore to change up or down). My beef was the fact you didn't get time to sort out equipment issues as it was, nobody wants to spend all day on the water back to back.
Once a class gets involved in organising itself it's the death nell. |

In that event the 400s and 500s started together but scored separately. No difference for the 100s.
