Face the facts, Oz! This years Hobart demonstrated how fragile racing boats
are and how dangerous it is to go to sea in them. It also shows a disregard for
life and limb and a disrespect for the sea.

It's not racing, it's stupidity and arrogance to think those flimsy boats even
have any business at sea. Keep them running round the buoys in a nice safe
harbor and they will be marginally acceptable. Allow them to go offshore
in one of the worlds roughest bodies of water and they will not be up to
the task.

Believe it!

I can see why! Somebody needs to teach those ******s how to bend
on a balanced sail plan and to get a boat with some staying power
in storm conditions.

Yeah, and I can see that you've never raced a boat in your life, have
no idea what a challenge is,and have no experience sailing in anything
like what these guys are getting......hell, you wouldn't be here if
you had!
