Greetings,
We have had a busy time since our last newsletter with the World Masters Games and NZ WetaFest.

We have also had the launch of the new Weta Foam Core boat along with the new 9.3 sqm SQT mainsail. We are very pleased with the response.

The focus of this newsletter is the Weta Rules Survey https://goo.gl/forms/NRi5VQ3oGh9o6DY62. This survey is in response to the WMG which was sailed under the North American Weta Class rules. There were some very clever innovations within the NAWC rules. Some of the innovations were excellent and others not so worthwhile.

We decided to tighten up the class rules to make them clearly one design.

We need to retain the simplicity of the Weta and the sailors who did the innovations at the WMG had this in mind while maximizing performance.

Please complete the survey as we need the rules to reflect the views of the owners.

We wish to acknowledge the work done by Brent Gribble (NZ) who wrote the survey and to Paul White (AUS) who collated and tweaked for electronic presentation.

Regards,
Roger Kitchen
