In the Northwest we now have two FXs sailing at regattas.
And we have hopes for a couple more as soon as Hobie gets more in stock in the US.
I think if this class at Hobie ragattas is to develope it takes a group to get them in each area and start the class off. It took a few years for the Tiger class to get off the ground here.

We are just getting this class off the ground here. And for us Hobie regatta sailors this is a good single hand option.
I have gone from the H17 to the Tiger and now to the FX. This boat has all the things I like from both the boats that I heve most recently had.
Awsome spinaker runs down wind, and the spin is managable.
And that single hand sailing up wind that was a real thrill on the H17.

If there were an FX event in conjuntion with one of the other National Events it would give a chance of building interest.

I'm sure there are a bunch of boats that are beter in all the different areas that the FX can do, but the FX seems to do well enough in each thing.

I don't think one design racing at Hobie regattas was ever about having highest performance boats, but having something we all can sail and be relatively competative.
