Several years ago I was on the beach at Canyon Lake for the Longneck Regatta. While there I noticed a couple of guys rigging a H-18. There were several things that were "incorrect". rather that approach them by pointing out that what they were doing was "wrong" I asked them if the would like to know a "better way" to rig the boat that would make it faster.
Sometime's it is all in the way you approach someone. Those two gentleman became VERY good frinds of mine, a frindship that survives to this day.
