Does anyone know if Race Committees In the US standardize on True or Magnetic GPS headings when setting marks?

OK, not surprisingly mixed reviews. So I am proposing a one design race, maybe T 10 Benetau 36.7, J120 or whatever. Each boat has their favorite sailmaker for the race, then they switch sails and crew. Who do you think is going to come out on top!

Just watched Maiden on a United Airlines flight, quite an entertaining documentary!  

Considering a new #3 for a J120. Based on cost, I’m looking at either a Doyle Delta Race or a Quantum MC6500. Anyone have experience with these sails or have a recommendation ?

Just to get some balance in this world....The Bayview Mac post race party on the island had not only free Bells beer but, free rum and vodka drinks. What a concept! You will never see that in Chicago.

Make an exact copy of the MUSTO EVOLUTION shorts and sell them for $60. You will make a killing!

It was time for tha tbutt ugly flag to be destroyed!
