And you should see the "circus" at the Alter Cup the last several years - most all of the sailors not racing hanging around the scoring tent listening to the mark roundings, watching with binocs, keeping close track of the action on the water, wanting to know who is moving up and who is moving down. I would guess most of the people who don't like the idea of only sailing half the races have not been present at the Alter Cup in its most recent format.
