Hey Jack, maybe you need to reread what I wrote: I just stated the FACTS and you put a whole personal interpretation on it. I love Wave sailing and have been racing with better sailors than you typically get at the Bay Week so you are wrong about that. They too have been put off by the years of disappointment from the lousy race committees. Maybe you conveniently ignore all the people who don't come back and just ratchet up your hype to get new unsuspecting sailors to show up. Even Mimi Appel asked who was doing race committee this year on the Wave Forum. It is because the issues had not been acknowledged for so long that people just got fed up with the screw ups and no corrective action It is the same reason that the Steeplechase has faded to nothing. I used to provide a list of problems with the regatta and suggested fixes and year after year it was ignored.

BTW, friends don't make public personal attacks, Jack. Your advice is good and you should take it.
