Come on! There are plenty of boats out there that could be lighter, and are not. It keeps the class happy not to have to buy a boat every year to keep competitive. If we keep things mostly the same then people considering the class will be able to afford competitive boats.

I like the class, I like the box rule. We have a great foothold to build the class and changing things will be devastating to the class! This is, maybe, the best box built boat...ever. Please, if you can, tell me one other that has a better following. Best yet is that it is a catamaran. This is great as we all like to sail Cats. Imagine if the best box rule boat were a keelboat?

One start, many manufacturers, different looks, all sailing to the same time...this is brilliant!

Later,
