An HCA Fleet or Division shall be the organizing authority for all Hobie One-Design fleets. b. A separate organizing authority will be required for the F18 fleet. That organizing authority shall be a US Sailing / Canadian Yachting Association member class association or yacht club. 3) There must be a minimum of two (2) Hobie manufactured boats in the F18 start and the Hobie Cat manufactured entries shall comply with IHCA membership requirements.
Event Administration: 1) There will be no restrictions to the number of events held under this policy 2) F18 start shall be conducted under F18 class rules. 3) Hobie manufactured F18s shall be split out and awarded HCA points based on their finish.
