If I had to guess bubbles, I'd say it was the guy that gets the flags.

Well, you know, just the Canadians. Not much to brag about.

OK, I'll back down then :-)


Did I tell you about the 15' skiff International Championship I
happened upon?
8 boats, all from the same sailing club, 4 were regulars, of which 3
were actually capable sailors. The rest were worse than terrible.

I made my thought very clear to their OOD and race management.
Ya see we have rules here about just what you can call State, National
and International Championships and they hardly even managed to call
themselves a class.

We are on the border, so we do get a fair # of guys from the other side that
race in our events and vice versa. Have a nice race at the end of the year
down to one of the clubs in Ontario about 30 nm away, then two races on
Sunday. Labor Day weekend, really nice folks, good party, good racing. The
only problem we've had was a Melges 24 that showed up for one of our races,
said his rating was 96.Only problem, we had a Melges 24 in our class at Bay
Week with a rating of 81. 15 seconds per mile is a big difference,
especially in a distance race. I think they ended up with our US rating.
