Arguments over at "Sailing Anarchy" say that it screws up the boat class and general public interest in the style it is portrayed on T.V. Sailing is a "Doing Sport " not a "Watching sport"..... The boats themselves are a spectacle to watch on the whole ,I think most people feel it out of reach,in time and money. And you end up with an equestrian attitude towards the sport...My2cents........
