| 151 | John Leashon | This decision also rules out the challenger for the disabled solo event. It is the best, safest, most exciting and versatile boat available and easily transported. I resent politics interfering with the olympic dream of all sailors.

| 152 | Mike Ward | The medal fleet selected does not represent the diversity of sailing and excludes one of the most exciting and media friendly classes, and a class that was not restricted by gender. This decision must be corrected by the IOC before it causes damage to the sport and the Olympic ethos |

| 155 | W.J. Hijink | I'm speechless. A match racing keelboat is considered more exiting and more easily understood by the general sports spectator then worlds fastest small sailboat, the Tornado catamaran. |
| 156 | A.Fenton President of Worthing YC | Well what a right stich up by RYA and ISAF. The Multihullshould stay and get rid of some of the Dinghy classes. the RYA should have done more for our catamaran sailors. I can see the Catamaran clubs and owners canceling their memberships of their sailing federations I for one will bring it up at our next club committee meeting. |

| 163 | Tim Swinburn | A mad decision driven by unrepresentative back-room politics and hidden agendas.
ISAF, the Royal Yachting Association and other deal-making national sailing organisations should be ashamed of themselves and their conduct.
These organisations are supposed to represent the sailing community at large, but are clearly out of touch with their constituents. |
| 164 | Carol Eldridge | What would ISAF like to exclude next, boats with more than one sail? If diversity is the aim, then why do all the sailing craft now have just one hull? Narrow-minded? Uninspired? Unbelievable! |

| 172 | Olli Jason | To remove the fastest and most exciting boat to watch out of the Olympics is absolutely backwards! |
| 173 | Sandor Roka | |
| 174 | Rob Wilson | Catamaran sailing is an intergral discipline of sailing that has to be represented at the Olympics. What is ISAF thinking! |
| 175 | Alex Evans | This is absolutely ridiculous! |

| 177 | David Newton | I am a trustee of the UK Challenger Class Association, an exceptionally good "disabled peoples" boat. It is a multihull and we have been trying to get ISAF recognition and IFDS to select this boat for paralympics, Our campaigne is based on exactly the same points made by the UKCSA. This decision has seriously damaged the prospects for us and for developing disabled sailing in less well off countries. But do ISAF realise or care? |

| 179 | Al Bush | I am also a monohull sailor, and enjoy mono's and cats equally. High performance Cats have unique challenges that you don't get with monohulls. It would be a great shame to outcast the cats, and hamper the development of a real adrenalin sport. |
| 180 | Pim Nieuwenhuis | banning the fastest class from the olympics is possibly the worst choice they could make. Well done boys!
but maybe we will see the AC in giant multi's? |

| 183 | Jez Banks | I have sailed MH in the past. It staggars me that we are excluding a ahole group of sailors when we should be encouraging as many participants as possibe - if not for the benefit of the sport, then because this arena is one of our best chances for medal success. |

| 190 | Joe Armstrong | Having included Multihulls in the past and now excluding them without any understandable reason leaves Club training without a reason for all their efforts and young people without a pinnacle to aim at. |

| 193 | Chris Rashley | I have sailed a Tornado for 4 years now and am proud to be in the Olympic team. It wil be sadly missed as the fastest boat in the olympics. We know longer have a wide spectrom of classes and this is a shame. Allot of talented sailors such as Tom Phipps, John Gimson, Stu Bithell, Marcus Lynch, Richard Glover, Ed Barney, Andy walsh and Adam Piggott have be dinied the chance of sailng that fantastic boat at the 2012 Olympic in London. |
| 194 | Richard Palmer | Appalled that the IOC has decided to discriminate in such a blatant (and political) fashion! |

| 200 | Robert England | The RYA and the ISAF are clearly biased against multihulls and deserve a strong vote of no confidence from multihull sailors and anyone who has the development of fast, exciting sailing for everyone at heart. It wasn't until I started racing a cat that I began to enjoy sailing again. |
