Thru no action of our own we are now in 2 nd place to
Cullison. In a mediation of a protest between Cullison and Dunn both were
found guilty and given a 5 pt penalty .
Interestingly, Daniels was the mediator. While
it will probably make little difference, Daniels could have vaulted into
first because of his decision. But since he missed the last 2 races he will
probably be out of the running.
A question the comes to mind is how could both parties be in
the wrong?
The protest was over room to finish at the committee end of
the finish line. Cullison said Dunn refused to come up when Jim tried to
luff him up into the committee boat. Dunn countered saying that if he
came up he would have been in the anchor line of the committee boat.
There was contact and Daniels penalized Dunn for failure to avoid contact.
Cullison was penalized for not giving Dunn room to finish.
How now brown cow.
