I had a good chance to check out Gale Browning's mini a few years ago,
they are very cool boats. However I think singehand racing is stupid. It
poses a danger to others... I don't care if people want to put
themseleves at risk for fun, but to endanger others for your own
entertainment is just plain irresponsible.

Why not race them doublehanded? It'd be just as much of a challenge.

I-14s, OD-14s, and Snipes are 2-person boats.

As for the rest, they don't race across oceans with autopilots on &
sleep-deprived skippers.


But it seems that most intelligent people disagree with you most of the
time.

Yep. Guess it depends on your definition of "intelligent."
