David: You've done a great job and at some point I think you just have to stop worrying. Those of us that race will be there. The others. . .

I'd rather sail with three people who care about Alter Cup than 100 who don't. And frankly, I'd probably go to an exclusive, racers only website; citing your frustrations.

Area D south (and the Cup) are the highlight of my sports year. As long as it's held and I have a pulse I'll be there.

See you on the beach Friday?
