<br> Existing Euro Formula 20s are some 30 LBs heavier and have 14.5 sq ft less sail area in the main . these are EXISTING CONDITIONS .
<br>
<br> The Fox and other excellent designs are per example in the original post as presently built in catagory 1 and allowed proportionately more sail area per total boat and crew weight catagory.
<br> -All mfg, and boat builders could build lighter versions similarly for the U S market to match the Inter class spec basis model , or even build lighter with correct sail plan options in 2 catagories with added spin options , or even offer basic plarforms .
<br> The Storm , Ventilo , Fox , and others would certainly have better oportunity in the U S market by targeting a better boat than the existing class model Inter , also knowing their is a viable 20 class of active racing sailors to accept them for fleet regattas and distance races.
<br>
<br> We would appreciate greatly input or recomendations any boat mfg. or builder would care to add , particularly in establishing final sail area to weight ratio numbers -
<br>
<br> Happy Holidays
