May I add that some seem over sensitive to any comments short of absolute praise when dealing with Fosset.

I only pointed out that playstation was all over the place and that such behavior will make it very hard on the crew during long distances races like THE RACE (where playstation did break down). If not downright dangerous, who wants to capsize in the southern ocean near antarctica ? If it was the crew that was actively pushing the boat this hard then I think they are asking for some serious damage or disaster.

I did not comment on the man Fosset in any way. Only that the boat/crew looked on the borderline of control and wipe out and that maybe fine in short course races but not in the long slugs across vast oceans and well away from points of rescue.
