Yes, Rick, the last one I attended (which I won, Jack)was in 2009. I made no effort to discredit the regatta, in fact I specifically wrote that I hoped you have a good turnout (are you sure you read my post?). I simply asked that you provide accurate information and provided the documentation to support the facts. Where is YOURS? That is the nature of facts - they stay the same whether it is what you want or not.
Let's see if this is clear enough..I truly hope the regatta is a smashing success, Rick, and that the Waves have the biggest turnout so far. Then maybe you will feel confident enough to describe it factually next year.
