Pretty unbelievable.


Nobody to blame but themselves! It was publicized all over the sailing mags and media. Both online and paper.


I don't agree. It was in some sailing mags, and certainly on certain web sites. But I know of folks into boating that didn't even know about the event or the boats. The only thing that people knew was that "some rich guys messed it up by going to court". Here in the "sailing capitol of America" there was virtually nothing leading up to it, and pretty hidden articles afterward (one front page on the local rag though). If you didn't get lucky you missed it in the coverage.
