I have purely a sailing question. Consider this quote:
Quote
I overheard a conversation that some of the "serious" racers who wanted to attend Havamega were planning to charter boats but bring their own sails, and that was what got nixxed, so they decided not to go.
Are the stock sails to be supplied by Hobie for the charter boats so different or so terrible that any sailors, "serious" or not, would NOT attend on the basis of the sails alone? Do they really think the outcome will be so terribly different? A bad craftsman blames his tools. A good sailor always does well, even on a scrappy boat (identical boats!).
Who would carry such a chip on their shoulder that they would not sail, given the chance? These folks must have a chip on BOTH shoulders! The fabled non-attendance must be based in simple anger and has nothing to do with the fun of sailing, the fun of racing, or fun in life.
Back down, go sailing, and race by your IWCA rules when it's your regatta.
Have fun!
