What is it that you win?

The Prize.

Why is winning so important?

It's not.

You get a prize?
or a qualification?

Both.

I enjoy what I do with my boat.

We're happy for you!

Apart from avoiding a collision... I dont give a toss what you do with
yours.

Thanks!

is how much sailing you do relevant or important to how much sailing someone
else does?

It's important to Mooron!

perhaps you could enlighten me?

Please ask Mooron. He "knows all!"
