Matt,

Come on now, you and I both know US Sailing pays very little attention and to say different will have to be backed with some evidence. Secondly, crap like this happens regardless of the platform and for someone to sit back and say multihulls don't have the act together because of it is simply stupid and probably being driven by an agenda!

I also think you are inaccurately and maybe with a little prejudice making some comments that really have no foundation. You well know or you should know there are a lot of folks involved in the ISAF event and to jump to the conclusion that the Steeplechase and the Tradewinds (ISAF regatta) will be conducted in a similar fashion is unfair and uneducated. We have all had our issues with Rick but knowing the folks currently involved with the ISAF event (and you should too Matt) the event will not disappoint.
