Well... I was gonna stick up for you Jeff...but you seem to have done a pretty good job yourself!
I think anyone here for a while knows your boat yard experience, thoughtful insights and ACTUAL time at sea and in racing venues makes you a treasured resource here as your REP indicates.
A johnny come lately with no-rep no-boat and no design experience starts complaining about YOUR biases without explaining from his OWN experience why they are wrong.... and I just have to shake my head a laugh.
