Shed a tear, perhaps a GGYC member ? perhaps, SW Sailer ?

Right on! No tears, no regrets from me. To employ an oft-used insulting phrases round here, they were a puppet.
Spectacular location, refurbished real estate. Now they need to nurture a soul.
May likely see significant drop off in membership numbers if Larry decides to pull the plug.
Of course we should remember it's on the cards he will need a club when he challengers again. GGYC or perhaps even a new club on Lānaʻi, his private island in Hawaii, although he'd have to build a harbour and a clubhouse and establish an annual ocean race!

Nope, not a GGYC guy, but that's their playground-- I'm not sure about the point of your post.Shed a tear, perhaps a GGYC member ? perhaps, SW Sailer ?

The point is continuation of his endless feud with a long-departed nemesis who previously posted on SAAC.

For Christ's sake...give it a rest.. GGYC saw a way to revitalize their Club and they've had a great ride for the last few years. Through Norbert, they exposed the Cup to so many, and are in a better place for it. The bitterness that exists towards GGYC is, frankly, pathetic.
Now RNZYS have to carry the mantle. Good for them but no one has it forever.......

it isnt clear that the defender ggyc correctly gave/transferred the ac trophy and ac assets etc legally -
ortusa is not the defender club per dog vs and the various acea acrm etc agreements
they have no language to the affect -besides possession of the trophy and
is not a completed transfer of the AC - imo

On what basis would you say should such a thing? Perhaps you need to call me too....

For real sailors in San Fran, it's probably good news a lot of memberships used by Orifice crew will now become available at the GGYC.

Oh FFS...you're in South Wales. If it wasn't for Orifice crew, there wouldn't be a GGYC.

From a kiwi perspective GGYC issue is a internal family affair. I dont wish them any ill, I hope for a prosperous future for them. On the other hand if the RNZYS sold out like this , I dont think things will go down as smoothly. Its not the Kiwi way. Some traditions are worth keeping, and this is one of them.

The MECHANISM and the Multi BILLOINAIR
GGYC was a Tool that did nothing wrong
They benefited w/o hurting any programs
And enjoyed the International Spotlight
Larry shall leave GGYC better off than how he found it
Unless he now holds the mortgage and gets the fees generated
Glad they held the Cup in 2013

Agree with most of this, except they DID sell their souls somewhat.
But I hold no ill will towards them as Lazza was always going to find a sock puppet, so if the GGYC had abstained it would have achieved nothing.
