Hear Hear - I concur with the gentleman from WI. And even worse when I tried to watch online I couldn't because I'm not a cable subscriber and you were required to 'log in' to watch EVEN on the day old replays.
Couldn't watch on my ATT smartphone without a U-Verse account either..
Bother !

Definitley the right idea. US sailing needs an angle. Remember the Jamaican bobsled team! And who can forget what Eddie the Eagle did for GB ski jumping. The whole world was watching!

I think we need to petition the Olympic Committee to certify the Chrysler Pirateer for competition and crews will be required to wear recreational sailing attire from the late 70's...per the attachedCaptainScott wrote:If they make the sailors wear the same type of clothes as beach volleyball folks, just maybe the interest will peak!

How needs a PFD...
