than to have 15 T4.9 sailors in the u.s. buy new masts (not gonna happen, it would just make 4.9 sailors less supportive of f16). Same for Stealth and Aus T4.9 sailors.
BTW, WF no longer races his Bim 16... so it would only affect him for resale.
I vote for the new mast height, as it only affects one boat in the world and would make the Stealths and T4.9's permanently competetive.
