Where I sail (Raritan Bay NJ) we have a highly competitive mostly 30 foot (J29's, S-2 9.1's, J-30's) PHRF fleet without enough J-30's to race OD. The proposed changes will allow us to sail more competitively against those boats.
We race OD as much as possible, but generally we only get two events a year (NA's and Larchmont NOOD). The LIS J-30's are too spread out to consistently field a OD fleet.
The proposed changes are all good, even though I can't afford to take advantage of all of them right away.
