Hi,
As Race Deck Chair and PRO for the 3BF this next year, unless someone would like to step up and relieve me of the PRO position, I was gonna chime in here with a few words and luckily Bob J. has offered up some wonderful responses and questions. Of course, my first question was asked and then addressed again with the "evidence" issue covered. Thank you and maybe golf needs to be suggested at the skippers' meeting as an alternative. Bad blood? Isn't that reserved for the offending boats and the protest committee? Not boat to boat, right? Bottom line, it is a pain in the butt to file a protest; however, lots can be done before the hearing to resolve the issue so . . . case in point last year two protests were filed within a very short time after the finish and those were resolved with 2 phone calls with the offending boats dropping out so . . . great discussion, thanks.
