If the rules don't cover what you're intending on changing, then you can't change it unless its submitted and approved by the measurement cimmittee. Does any one know which masts tubings are better suited for the SF Bay. And which of these masts are considered Class Legal for S20. Vince, I have also been sailing the Friday Night Series on the Oakland Estuary with the Alameda, Island, and Encinal yacht clubs and actually doing quite well. My boat doesn't have a mast compression problem.
Lets definitly try to spread the word about a fleet on the estuary.
It would be very fun to get a one design fleet together. This is an ideal place to sail Santana 20's. The local YC hosts excelent Club Races. I am would like to see a fleet here cause one design sailing is so much fun. This year I am the San Francisco Bay CAL-20 Fleet 32 Captain, another full little boat to sail in San Francisco.
