I'm with Dave. Happens every year, with eerily similar words being used each time. When so-and-so team wins on boat X, people who like boat X jump up and down - sometimes it even finds its way into the manufacturer's promotional liturature. People who own boats Y and Z get defensive. Someone else pipes up and says "I'm just sayin'!" Change the boats around all you want, but the post-game rattle sounds the same.

I'm not complaining - I enjoy the smack-talk. It does give me a half-second's angst, though, that year to year, proponents of last year's winning boat grumble at all when the tables are turned...

I'm more interested in the way things went on the water - but for one OCS, Mischa was looking solid. The one day they got breeze, Mitch looked brilliant. His boy Taylor is showing the potential of a future multi world titlist. Cammas, as others have noted, made a singularly impressive entrance to the class - I'm hoping he stays in the class for a while in between his other endeavours. Also good to see Greg and Brett do so well - the father/son thing that touches more than one team is pretty cool.
