That would be the insurance company, and the discounted rate charged to the OA is a benefit of US Sailing.

Hate to burst your bubble but we quit using Chubb (US Sailing insurance provider) regatta insurance because it was too expensive and found a provider that gave the same coverage for less so the Chubb arrangement isn't really a benefit. Have ever noticed that Chubb never makes the cut when someone asks about insuring their boat? Why is that? Come on Mike I know you need to beat the US Sailing drum but now it's just starting to get ridiculous. Stop pimpin the stuff we can't use and start working on the things we need!
