Totally agree with MK7, we need to bring in big sponsors who are willing to invest, start development programs like what the RYA does (Formula Experience for example), and work from the grassroot level. Once there were over 100 competitors in Brisbane races. What happened?
I heard only 1 junior turned up for the Juniors Olympics trial for the RSX. If it was true, then there are 9 more places for the Aus team to be filled, and I think any junior who can ride the boat stands a good chance in getting in the team. Now cant say this is not an opportunity. Wish I am 18 again
