The thing we wouldn't allow is modification of a factory supplied charter boat.
I believe that is certainly in order. You own the boats...you say what can or can't be done with them. Makes perfect sense. But that aside, are you saying if I had brought my own boat and ICWA sail, I would have been welcome at HavaMega?
That apparently wasn't made clear Matt.
One the other hand, we do believe in the basic premise that made the Hobie Class Association what it was, and is. One Design, Class or Brand only style regattas worked very well and still have their place.
I agree with that too. However, the KEY WORD here is WAS.
As expressed in the preceeding love fest, times they are a changin'.
I believe the ideal solution for the Wave "problem" is for HCA sanctioned events to have an IWCA class within the overall fleet and for IWCA sanctioned events to have an HCA class within their fleet. It would be the same as the Seniors (which is actually a redundant class
), Juniors, Ladies, Gerbils, whatever. All would race together and awards would be made accordingly. I think we can afford a few more trophies.
