I spent yesterday afternoon sat on the (free) boulders in front of the Nothe course. Being there drove home in a way the TV does not how short the medal race courses are and how variable the wind.
I don't really have a problem with that for the Women's Match Racing because the boats don't split across the course anyway and it's a best-of-five format so luck tends to balance out. But if you've got to have a double-points no-discard medal race, this is no place to run it. No self-respecting class would allow its Nationals to be run in a locate like the Nothe course. |

There there, no need to be scared sonny, I've got a handle on it, and like they say, it's the same for everybody.
