There is a provision in the class rules for distance races and GPS, for the F18 fleet anyway.

Did anything official ever happen with this?

Not yet Bob. I know John submitted the write up for the technical committee but I haven't seen anything from the fleet regarding a ruling. Should be very soon though.

I don't believe there will be a rule change. If there is, it might not be until 2012. The current rule isn't worded the best, but it is what we have for now.
