I got the impression he was talking about an Olympic class of F18 type boats. Built to fit F18 rule with the exception of the weight. In olympic class races you race it light. For F18 box rule regattas you add weight and race at 180. This could be a win win for both F18 and olympics. The F18 fleets/builders get the advantage of R&D done by the olympic sailors and addition of more olympic sailors racing the F18 regattas. The olympics get a larger pool of talent and more regattas for training.
