It is in NO way a requirement for the class to be an "international class" if that were the case then the RSX, 49er and Elliot 6 would not have been considered....

maybe you are right though... we should aim for mediocre just like the rest of the boats in there...

So in a perfect world you would choose a Tiger as the Olympic boat??? come on man! think outside the box a little.

This is an opportunity to do a great thing for multihull sailing and you are suggesting we go backwards just because everyone else is doing it...
