They are just Jealous. Had the same thing happen back in 1988. A bunch of us Smoked the stinkpots in a Distance race heard one of them say at the awards party we weren't "Real Boats". I asked them what time did the get off the boat. They said about 5 or so. I had to tell them I had been on the trailer and drinking by 3, so who's the "Real Boat Now". He didn't have much to say to that other than when could he get a ride!
