Hi Tony,
I sure hope the class catches on. Only problem being the ships are now pretty pricey. And if the whole class is going to have to be motorized, that will in essence financially exclude the great majority of us guys. I just feel bad about not having a true "one-design" class of racing. They picked the wrong machine. I think if they had picked the Russia AC series, it might have caught on here in the states, as that machine performs pretty good and was definitely affordable.
