Thanks Pepin,

I cant understand how you could throw out a team for measurement issues without actually measuring the boat? Ridiculous!! As specially at the end of the regatta.
A requirement for all the regatta I know about is to have a measured boat with a measurement certificate. AFAIK the only measurement done with this boat at the time of the 104 challenge was done early in the year, the change in jib was probably implemented but the boat was not re-measured. Hence its DSQ.
It would be nice if Sirena would send the rumored new certificate to the SCHRS to end these discussions once and for all.
As for the "end of regatta protest" I should point out that the protest was verbally notified to the crew on the Nacra on the first day and officially logged at the beginning of the second day, but only judged *after* the regatta.
