I wonder the about the number of woman raced multi's world wide at the international level vs the number of women who match race keel boats.
Was there a pyramid of women keel boat match racing?
Ding DING DING ... a killer observation!
NO
and both the discipline (match) AND the boat (Elliot) AND the type (Keelboat) were tossed for 2016(rejected by the majority of MNA's because they did not want to play)
The Olympic pinnacle rested on a handful of athletes (with killer political skills)... not even a thin reed of grass roots support.
The take home message should be.... There is a danger in putting the cart before the horse.
