Nacra's Olympic multihull trial entries

   So John, you trust the muppets at ISAf implicitly to do what's right for sailing? I don't, so a tenner is quite enough thank you!

	I agree those 20c's are awesomely quick.. F16, F18 now F17.. can I have an F19 so I can still drink beer and be competitive.. :) I think for the Olympics the 17 is the perfect boat.. it ticks every box box and many more.. but the idea of the Olympics is to be involving and open to anyone if they are good enough.. F18 is also very possibly the ideal boat for the Olympics but the problem lies with F18s coming in many shapes and sizes.. to have a F18 as the Olympic boat they would need to standardize on one particular boat but which one? the two main contenders here are the Tiger which is no longer manufactured or the Infusion but in Mk2 form is still quite new.. so which one would it be.. whichever one it is will have a long future even outside F18 box rule racing.. so long as it was still built and I think this is where the main issue is for F18 as 'the boat' The only stable thing to do is to settle on one design which knowing ISAF and thier single-minded and uninformed approach to boats will no doubt mean the Hobie 16 has a long life yet.... Heaven forbid... for me.. Nacra F20 Carbon Edited by Yello Streak - 30 Jan 12 at 11:35am
