Well, we didn't REALLY believe that the situation was hopeful, right ?

I believed we had a chance to continue the Tornado but never never a big chance.

The mono world never really wanted any other design next to their collection of dinghies.

The fact that certain National organisations were "forgetting" about the Tornado in their ballots was the warning signal that something serious was going on.

So now this fight have resulted in a loss we, as cat sailors, are free to decide what to do next.

This seems like a good time to revisit the discussion about building our own power structure and getting a serious youth track going.
