I guess for the back of the shirt I was thinking of something a little more fun and eye-catching, to sailors and non-sailors alike, like:

F-16
The enLIGHTened Catamaran
No fat, no sugar, no calories
Fast, fun, addictive…and HEALTHY

OR

F-16
BEWARE: This cat may be addictive

Race the Wind

sounds really nice, but boring.

Best of both worlds

is perfect in the context of the class talking about how the F16 compares to other cats and when people know what it means (one-up or two-up on the boat). But out of context on a T-shirt, who would know what

both worlds

means? Probably only class members.

Okay, I have definitely run out of my two cents worth. <img src=

Need more input from more people.

Right, but it still needs to be INTERESTING and EYECATCHING.

Like Hog's Breath Beer has that slogan,

Hog's Breath is better than no breath at all.

If you have a slogan like,

BEWARE: This cat can be addictive,

you can actually have a whole series of

ads

on different shirts based upon that slogan. And they won't really have anything to do with sailing.

Could be a great ad campaign for the boat.

I always envisioned the next slogan for a Blade F16 promo-add.

You've been challenged; Choose your wapon ! (On front)

Blade F16 ! (on back)

But should there be shirts just promoting the Blade?

Yeah, and I see it is also the name of a sailing board game and the name of an organization dedicated to finding adoptive homes for greyhounds, and also the name of a made-for-TV movie about a blind man.

Obviously, others thought it was a great phrase, too. Guess we will have to come up with something more original -- something that can be unique to the F16.

Still trying to think of a serious suggestion, but in the process the following crossed my slightly twisted mind -

F16 - not an ISAF-approved class.

Just kidding - I'm sure there are a variety of views on that issue. <img src=

Formula 16 -

Looks aren't Everything

The cats in the class are good looking - so that should get people talking.

Formula 16, by sailors for sailors

Rationale: Rules was designed by sailors, describing what they wanted themselves. Boats are buildt by sailors, and they are a sailors dream..

The class with no class

When in doubt pull three sails out.

He's got two, they have three.

On tap, in a bottle or around the cans.

Sometimes I wish I could slow down.

F16, more fun than that one night you can't remember.

If you catch up you can see the front of the shirt.

Batteries not required.

It's really not your fathers Oldsmobile.

SACACACAF, wait we went too far.

F16, Don't try one if you not prepare to want one !

F16 = Pocket Rocket !

T-shirt :

Front : F16 1-up, are YOU man enough ?

Back : F16 2-up, it takes two to Tango !

F16 cats, remember that !

1 Sailor, 2 Sails, 3 times the glory; F16 1-up !

Mano a Vento, F16 !

OK so are we going to get a consensus on which one we want?

Comes Tuesday the latest; I will place whichever one I like them most from this list on the T shirt. Then the class can decide if we will ever decide on an official slogan.
