What were they thinking? Where did all the changes come from? I'd like to see the race results that warranted these changes.

Nacra 6.0 Express was 59.7, now is 58.5 --- Where are the race results that say it is faster than an I20 (59.2)? Somebody check what's in the water cooler!

And, who thought it was a good idea to drop the weight (heavy weights) corrections? If you have a minimum weight requirement for classes, how can you not have a heavy weight correction? That is contradictory. They are admitting on one hand that it is an advantage to be too light and not a disadvantage to be too heavy? I thought the ratings are to help even the palying field.

This discussion can probably go on a long time. I will be complaining to my rep. Who wants to play the rating game? These latest changes appear to be discouraging race participants and hurting the sport we all enjoy. It looks (to me) like politics are raising their ugly head. I just want to sail and have fun. These new tables really stink!

Just my opinion..............
