In response to: Ainslie Perth 2011 incident a matter for ISAF

I have not seen the details of the incident, but can I be informed why the media boat and the specific race were not both chucked out?!

In response to: Ainslie Perth 2011 incident a matter for ISAF

So the RYA and Yachting Australia are leaving it to ISAF to add further punishment. But wouldn't a fairer outcome to both hearings have been to forgive Ainslie and un-disqualify him from those two races (he still missed the Medal Race) and do whatever the rules allow to punish the real culprits - the media boat crew and whoever authorised them. I strongly suspect ISAF should be punishing itself!

In response to: Farr 40 stacks up against newer rivals

Perhaps the Farr 40 class should consider why its numbers have been in decline well before the Farr400 and M38 arrived?

In response to: Acciona - design development

What a brilliant article James. I've got a lot of time for Merfyn, and now it's reinforced by his frank and honest take on curved daggerboards. Following a trend for the sake of it is the easy way out, so hats off to him for sticking to what he believes is correct. Great looking boat guys!

In response to: Video: The nuts and bolts of Loki pt2

Thank you so much for Loki part one and two. It was both very interesting and very enjoyable. Please give us more of this, maybe with a better camera (carrying a light for under deck shots)and don't hesitate to go more into technical detail. Please more of this! Mats Ohlsson

In response to: Big boat arrivals

Is it our imagination or are there a lot of rigging failures occurring in offshore racing at the moment?
