South Carolina | Down here that's called spitting the dummy, bad form when every single country had a waiting list of people wanting to attend just for the fun of it. Agreed Bad form and bad sportsmanship Agreed, Very bad form as people (I assume) were queueing up to go to the event. If I was the one on the list who did not meet the cut I'd be (just a tad) pissed off that someone just gave up. I'm not defending their actions but just pointing out that there was not a waiting list for a slot in the US / Canada.

What do you think was a reasonable budget estimate for doing the F18 Worlds? Including Reg, Air fair, food and lodging plus the cost of chartering or shippnig your boat and insurance.
Its got to be a signifiant sum!

Its got to be a signifiant sum! No doubt! I've not attended anything overseas with my equipment but I've traveled a bit internationally and our company ships a good bit overseas. Off the top of my head; without a big concentrated effort with several teams involved (i.e. an individual effort) you're probably looking at $10,000 by the time you get two (at least) people and boat there, eat and sleep for a week or better, and get back home. That said, I believe most of the US teams have chartered boats on site.

I believe we did fill them all. So someone could (maybe) have gone instead of the pair that "just gave up".

Long Beach, California | I'm doing the math for Aus in Feb... About $2k in airfare per person, $1,500 for a charter, $175/night lodging (10 days for $1,750 per room). Beer money still could be largest expense... $10K is a good ball park, Jakers. Wanna go? <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Melbourne, Australia | 1 GER 143 - Capricorn Helge Sach / Christian Sach 2 AUS 7 - Hobie Darren Bundock / Glenn Ashby 3 GER 308 - Capricorn Andrew Landenberger / Felix Egner 4 FRA 11 - Hobie Jean Christoph Mourniac / Franck Citeau 5 NED 578 - Nacra Infusion Wouter Samama / Jeroen Van Leeuwen Just got this e-mail from Greg Goodall Hi all,
Hopefully you have been watching the F18 world’s results; 1st Christian and Helge Sach, and 3rd Andrew Landenberger and Felix Egner was a fantastic result for the Capricorn. We had about 35 boats in the fleet of 160. This made us the 2nd biggest class of F18 at the Worlds and we had by far the best result. We also won 1st place in the silver fleet. It’s good for F18 sailing to show that talented sailors on a very good boat can still beat the professional teams.
We will keep working hard to make the Capricorn even better and faster before the next Worlds. Over the next 12 months we have a great opportunity to establish the Capricorn as the F18 of choice.
To all who have contributed to making this boat such a success, my sincere thanks.
Best regards,
Greg
