That was what Brad Butterworth, Alinghi’s ace tactician, said when he was asked how he felt by the race committee about racing being abandoned on Thursday. He did say it with a good wry, sarcastic tone, since it was obvious to everyone that conditions were unsuitable. Well, the boats never even left the dock yesterday, and racing was again abandoned today. So now I’m the one who is bitterly disappointed. I’ve come halfway around the world and spent over three months watching the Louis Vuitton Cup and waiting and waiting for this event. Now we’ve had three consecutive days of racing thrown away. Yes, I’m disappointed. At least they realize they are running out of time and have agreed to attempt a race tomorrow, which was scheduled to be a lay day. The forecast doesn’t look to promising to me, though, so I’m going to keep my expectations from raising too high.
