John, well said.

I can see how disheartening it could be to put the time/energy in that you and others have to improve the state of cat sailing in the US only to be walked all over by the upper levels of the governing body. To do the work, to want to better the sport... only to end in a worse position than before by no fault of your own. I'm sure you're at that point, "why? f it!"

This is another David/Goliath sort of fight. Sadly we may just have to take our toys and go play in another sand box.
