I would like to see it opened up to any sailmaker that could build the sails to class specs. In the Thistle Class, you could buy your sails from anyone. The sailmaker would get the dimensions that they had to meet from the Class Association by paying a royalty to the Association.

BTW, how come my old spinns easily fit, some room to spare, from mast to the snuffer head and my new spin just barely fits. Is this a lack of control or an optimization within measuring limits? Hmmm? You couldn’t determine my new spin to not be class legal could you? After all it is from the required sailmaker, isn’t that all that’s required.

BTW, BTW I don’t what to see us go the way the 6.0s went.
