<br>-The 6/0 in Formula racing would place in the Catagory 1 at 410 and above boat weight with av 330 LB crew to a 740 LB total .
<br> Existing 6/0 sail areas are within approx. 10 sq ft of max allowed in catagory , and would be allowed max. spin area in catagory or more sq ft as per crew weight .
<br> The platform , boards rudders mast gear equipement or sails may be replaced or modified as the owner chooses. The boat will be very competitive as is .
<br>
<br> Note ; this cat has a heavier mast with added stays and may along with cats with existing heavier comtips , be the only existing cat designs to request {dispensation } in spin area.
<br>
<br> Looking for active 6/0 sailors recommendations in this area and as to potential modification and general tuning improvements for this excellent racing cat .
<br> Hopefully eventually photos and an article on setting up and racing the 6/0 .-<br><br>
