Bottom line -
Yes, C249 is a bit wordy, but it's good information and very relevant to the discussion. ISAF rules and Olympic politics are difficult to overcome, but that doesn't mean that we give up.
We are lucky that windsurfing is an Olympic sailing class. We put our collective heads together and come up with what we think will work best within the class (defining what "works best" is a bit of a challenge), but selling it to the ISAF is the biggest challenge.
It's not likely that future Olympic windsurfing will have a significant impact on the windsurfing world, but it just might.
