Do you want multihull sailing to be represented at the Olympic games by a H16??

Oh, and remember: the H16 is an OPEN class!
I think the H16 is the perfect Womens catamaran for the Olympics.

It is one of the few classes in the world that actually has a women's championship since at least 1989:

It is cheap to own. It is SMOD. It is the largest catamaran class anywhere. Many teams sail it mixed. Youth can sail it. Its not that slow.
