How many fleets, NA's and continents are the SL16s represented on? I dont think it qualifies yet, but have not checked it. But more importantly, do we want adults to compete in the games on what is essentially designed as a youth boat?

I dont see how it can come down to either eliminating the multihull event or changing equipment. But this is decided by politics on it's highest and dirtiest level, so nothing should come as a surprise. It is well known that sailing is not very popular with the IOC as it is one of the largest and most expensive sports to have in the games. At the same time sailing dont bring much revenues in as it is not a large TV sport. Over time, I guess sailing will be represented in the games with the Laser and the Laser Radial.
