I admire his chutzpah for making that decision. This stems from the past, when we used to sail a bunch of “O”s, a bunch of T 1 1/3s, and a few windward/leewards. Over the last 10 to 15 years, we’ve gone to almost entirely windward/leewards, because the race is tactical both upwind and downwind.

While it has been incredibly exciting, tactical and challenging, to some degree it is boring. In talking to many people on Sunday, a number of people were OK with an occasional “O”, and a number of people were opposed to ever sailing anything but a W/L. The Capri Fleet is demanding that a reach never be sailed in winds over 8 or 10 knots, because the boat rounds up inadvertently and</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'> </span><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>is dangerous. My personal opinion is that I like the W/Ls, but one or two “O”s a year could be a welcome change for many fleets.
