John, weren't there some changes to the new Olympic sailing rules, where only the top 10 boats will sail in the finals and there will be no throwouts? I realize this is not the Olympics, but for future reference, I'd like to know. Thanks.
Yeah, in an effort to increase the marketability, the majority of the event is considered like a 'regular season' that leads up to the playoffs. The last day of racing (or two?) is for the top contenders and they get no throwouts. So far, the system doesn't seem to be very popular among the competitors.
