The overall problem with things like this these days, they need to be run enthusiastically, not with the fear that it'll look bad on the CV if it goes pear shaped.

To me that's the problem, its a firing line and it shouldn't be, peoples attitudes have to change, out of the me me me culture.

Well you can't change anything from the outside, that much I do know about the RYA, and we did run a very successful committee with them for quite a few years in the early windsurfing days, providing you get someone from their side that also has some vision.

In the real world, offline, I'm a businessman, have been all my life and you don't get to do that by being unreasonable and knowing apologies cost nothing. I already chucked my hat in the ring, it would as I said be churlish not to, particularly after all my criticism, if nothing else one of two things will happen, they'll tell me to piss off, or I'll finally get to find out why they can't make it work for all of us and I'll bow out apologetically to all I've slandered over the years.

As for being roasted , like that's never happened before..
