So WindyHill F20

As I understand it. You did not protest him.

You did not have a protest hearing.

You did not ask US Sailing to start the process for disciplinary action since he lied about insurance and refused to take responsiblity for his actions.

You did not inform the next regattas that X lied about insurance and a US Sailing process had been started so he should not be allowed to compete.

Realize.... If US Sailing throws a sailor out of the game... any yacht club that allows the person to compete can also be tossed.

This is the system we have for enforcing a minimal set of behaviors.

If I am organizing the regatta... I DO NOT WANT TO BE INVOLVED IN YOUR PERSONAL CRISIS. I don't see the regatta chair's job as one of enforcing proper behavior of the racers...

This sport is self policing... When a behavior of cheating is OK unless you get caught and then we just spin it as "pushing the rules" and so excuse the bad behavior.... we are all screwed!
