DAY OFF Jun 23, 01:10
Valencia, 01:00 Thursday
Tried to take the day, Thursday, off and mas o menos I did; at least managed not to post anything here.
It is better when we are racing -- the day is easier, more routine. Day off (no racing) and it becomes a meeting fest. Long meeting this afternoon with the jury, ACM and others trying to sort out yet another regatta-wide policy/procedure.
John Kolius was right, at least at the time, when he said the America's Cup is three years of meetings followed, finally, by a few weeks of racing. Now it is three years of meetings and racing. No wonder everyone involved is a very busy if not a bit stressy at this point.
Lots of pics to post later today, but after a good, long sleep.
But first, I gotta post a pic (below) someone just emailed of a well-known Cup figure, LOL. Definitely not under any stress, or maybe he is and has lost it completely? ;)
Regardless, certainly a different race committee "look" from the Newport days.
