James named the F16 class voting on this forum "not entirely accurate"

In order to nip this one in the butt I would like to ask any F16 boat owner (meaning a true F16 or a Taipan 4.9 with a spinnaker setup) to mail me privately at Formula16class@hotmail.com and express his or her unease at the proposed relaxation or deletion of the tip weight rule.

This way the voting can be fully verified and is is fully private.

Sailors may also send in their mails of support for relaxing or deleting the tip weight rule.

Anybody who does not send in any mail is assumed to support what ever the body of local class heads is deciding (Phill Brander, Eric Poulsen, John Pierce, Steve Mellet, Scott McCook and Wouter Hijink)

This window to send in your mails will run from now (25 jan 2005 to 25 feb 2005)

You are required to supply your full name, boat name (if any), boat type and your sailnumber. Only one vote per individual boat is allowed, as always. So you vote as a crew. If you don't satisfy these 5 conditions then your mail will be thrown out.


Thank you,

Wouter Hijink

Chairman Formula 16 class.
