Weigh the damn thing at Spring Fever for free... actually weigh ANY US Boat that is not on the ISAF or Texel list... eg an ISOTOPE, or god forbid a Shark when you are doing your F18's .... because it's a good cause and you have the opportunity.
Mark,
Dave and Kathy work their butts off measuring boats at SF. He did my A for me for $10 which I consider a deal, because short of a nationals I won't get any other chances, but to throw "measure them for free because you have the chance" out there is way out of touch.He's there to race ,ya know. You've always been a great volunteer but point out how little gets done by other folks. Well, asking Dave to measure everything for free is the exact kind of action and attitude that drives away volunteers.
I personally see a ton of merit in what Kaos said. Portsmouth may be far from perfect but it's in place and the effort it would take to switch, on every level, is going to be more damaging than doing nothing.
