I liked the AC class more when it was designers + crews + conditions fighting it out not just programmers.
- deltarholamda 4y agoThe rules-lawyering really hurt the sport. It was always a rich man's playground, but now it's gotten ridiculous. Watching a bunch of 15-year-olds compete in Optimist dinghies at your local lake or reservoir is way more fun and entertaining than today's AC, IMO. You just can't shake the feeling that whoever spent the most money wins at the AC, which is boring.
