Please help identify this RBBS competitor

[GrandWeasel]

Sounds very serious, which makes me wonder why you have posted here and not filed a protest for un-sportsman like behaviour against the boat/team that you feel are reacting to an incident on the water?

You already stated that you have video of the tampering. It would not be hard in a formal protest to find out which team member committed this alleged act.

A 69 action was filed against the other competitor who we know the identity of and is currently pending.

Posted a photo of him and accused him of unspecified but serious wrong doing? With malicious intent to harm his reputation? That would be enough for a concerns notice here in the land of Oz.

yeah, but oz is only slightly less restrictive on speech than russia

We have a suspicion as to who it is but are not confident enough to make an outright allegation of his identity until someone else can confirm it. As I said, they boarded the boat and spent six minutes aboard in the dark with a flashlight doing something. When we returned to the boat, the lifelines had been completely unspun and the spinnaker turning block shackles had been unwould to expose only one thread. If we had not noticed it, things could have been really bad. I decline to elaborate further because to do so would compromise my own anonymity to the extent that it exists.

Plesae tacke sometime outte to unwinde thoise panties...

Nope. I’m fucking pissed and this guy is going to pay. You don’t fuck with another boat’s safety equipment.

He's probably on the same boat. Did you check google/linkedin/facebook/instagram for all the other crew?

Unscrewing lifelines and spin blocks is pretty dangerous. I would call the cops if I thought they would do anything. Maybe Coast Guard would have more spare time and expertise? It is a misdemeanor to "tamper with a marine safety device" in my jurisdiction.

 

[Marty Gingras]

Maybe the police would be interested and helpful.

But you are happy to post his pic?

Yes, and I have a name in mind but I’m not sure enough to make a formal allegation. But we are 100% certain that the person in the picture is one of the guilty parties, hence the reason I’m willing to go public with this.

 

[GrandWeasel]

But you are happy to post his pic?

This is the guy, we just don’t know who he is.

 

[See Level]

What ever happened to the good old Big Boat Series days...when you just went out to the bars after the club and got into a fistfight with the other crew.
There was no fucking with other people's boats

This is going to be interesting with the J-105 NA's starting next Monday!

Btw, a quick perusal of the protests from BBS reveals several J-105 protests but no mention of a Rule 69. This could of course be at the whim of the PC.

Reputational damage is the test here. So if you can prove that the audience already thought the plaintive was a cunt before someone called him a cunt then it is fair touch, play on. This is why I will never be able to sue anyone for defamation.

 

[GrandWeasel]

as eli says, you know which boat you had an incident with. If you actually want to find the person's name, call out the boat or STFU. I only see one DSQ on the scoring list. https://yachtscoring.com/event_results_cumulative.cfm?eID=15026

Here's the crew list: https://yachtscoring.com/crew_list_report.cfm?eID=15026

The DSQed boat was emphatically not the guilty party

No need to prove anything. If we already know that you are a cunt and then call you a cunt, we are really only making a statement of fact.

So... you seeme to no alle.... why our you askseng us?

That is what I just said. Try to keep up, cunt.

Nature abhors a vaccuum. That's the problem with providing vague, partial information. Pitchforks out!

are you allowed to damage someone's reputation with the truth there?
