Hi Micheal
Which boats does the new local boat dealer carry , his support may be oriented there due to commitments or relationships with a particular builder though most dealers now sell multiple types of boats by several mfg.s
You may just adopt existing Open Formula rules and begin racing events ,get it started in your geographic area , let it evolve with partisipation and class members , it is very much a catsailors class .-It takes time to grow any new sailing organization or fleet.
Please keep us posted and updated on progress .
The new Keys to Tybee race and major events and others being planned will also give a big boost to the class.
Look for an official web site up soon .
