This is an outrageous decision that has disgusted myself and many Multihull sailors around the World. Think of all the young multihull sailors who aspire to represent their country at a Games. They now must turn to monohulls or sailboards to fulfil their dreams......... Or even another sport all together. Ridiculous decision that cut out a very large portion of the sailing fraternity with one foolish decision. Is it really beneficial to our sport to ignore a large group of sailors in favour of adding more of the same style disciplines in the Games? 1 man dinghy 1 woman dinghy 2 man dinghy 2 woman dinghy Mens keelboat Womens Keelboat Mens Sailboard Womens Sailboard Mens Multihull Womens Multihull These are the disciplines we should have and should not be open to voting upon. Once set, then the equipment should be voted upon by only those who represent the SAILORS best interests. Only other option would be to not split the dinghy disciplines into 1 up and 2 up but have a mens dinghy and womens dinghy to replace the 4 x dinghy disciplines.
