If F16 sloops and uni's cannot race together even, what is the point of having an F16?
IF this your concern, why have F18's why have H16's? Why have Tornadoes? Why even have catsailing in general? Formula 16 class is a smaller lighter class, than can keep up pretty good with the bigger guns.
If you look at the rating numbers, they arent rated equally. According to the experts, they arent on the same level. (Experts as in Number assigners, and not builders, builders is a whole nother ballpark) If I sail Uni, I would want to be put in first in wins, its an option we can have. But according to Portsmouth and Texel UNI and SLOOP arent the same. And RC's would have the ultimate decision on assigning UNI's along with SLOOPS.
Both have cons and pros. But it is proven the sloop is a faster F16.
I dont think F16 UNI and F16 Sloop are the same, and cannot sail on a one design level. Plus the F16 is NOT a one design class and thank GOD for that.
