.. premise: The following post is written under the influence of a mind-numbing post-headache-too much vodka in the bottom of a night / morning of October in Rome, with all the windows open, a concert of crickets, and unspecified nocturnal animals entering and leaving from home doing a little 'how the hell they want ..
.. but that's not why this post begins with the most sincere congratulations to ROCKETS!
splendid fifth in recent Snipe World Masters of Rio de Janeiro ..

.. now I can say with Spiss , last year during the Assembly of class, he commented that going to Rio with his wife is like taking beer to Germany .. but it is certainly thanks to Lady SEMEC that such a result was possible, because without taking anything away from the handle of the huge Spiss without would have been her first .. highly unlikely to be able to see him race, separating from the wonders of the beaches Carioca -
So again congratulations to Rockets , really a great result!
brings us to our Zonal : won Giorgio and Marco .. I think .. I do not have the final standings of the Zonal, but at a guess and a good approximation have won them, deserved, and not a little relieved by the writer, who after having condemned (unintentionally) other fellow elders to one year of life with a broom-in-ass because the outcome (completely accidental) of the previous zonal championship, I can finally feel freed from this responsibility, hoping that they decide to dispose of the gear or at least the ominous ominous Using the tool, as the natural order of Zone IV (at least to them) has been finally and unequivocally restored .. at least I hope so .. if he were to continue with that solace .. nothing to say, their business!
Anyway congratulations to George and Marco , which have been very successful over a far from easy championship, which ended with a race that was a bit 'synthesis of all the disasters which he had witnessed during the course of the season, a kind of final riassuntone , who went on to sweep with the zonal AVB, 30 ° jump and race dummies, and no one bother to move a buoy, with the Zonal Planet, a huge field, and just as wrong, just 500 meters from the windward side, a day in air dancer with 4kt at most, even then cemented and buoy racing frankestin to follow, but no one took the trouble to groped something with that AVVV, other nice numbers .. and finally, last but not least, in fact, the Camilla Cup: 2 hours to float because they pretended to give the start to 13.00 (??), and then you are made of 15.00, with the NW that retired 30 ° swing in carrying on monobordo boa .. the creeps, to tell the truth, I had come in the morning, when I found the instructions "DO NOT" buoys were moved .. only shortening, and in fact have shortened after the upwind starboard and aft become as straight through, while they were behind in anything, and those were in front thanks to the heat finally came back, when she had made the 16.00 .. with a jump that looked more like a double axel .. but that's okay: shorter, damage the finish will give back the start .. certain that the departure will give back, at last there is an air stable, the right side .. e. move the field. but what?! .. Accaso!
At 16.30 we were all on the ground, with the lake swept a sincere termichetta of 5m/sec ..
.. now, all would probably require a vast and comment, that still would not matter as a central concept "MACHECCAZZO!"
The fact that this administration, unfortunately, has not been an exception does not console, personal care, and much.
console (the famous " ajetto" ) the fact that certain facts are not a peculiarity of our races, but it is something that is becoming the norm a bit sinister 'on all fields, or at least on many race courses, even on the most important fields of a Zonal well as Italian Melges.
It is very clear: nothing to say to the movement in general, and organizers of the Cup Camilla in particular, which were splendid and lavish as always, that the party atmosphere Despite everything, have done the impossible to save her, and pasta e fagioli final was fantastic as usual .. the concept, the middle, he gets that ..
Now I do not know (and I prefer to remain ignorant .. and not just natural talent ..) if certain facts are the result of chance, a string of unfortunate cases, or not .. But some thought-provoking, especially considering that in the face of racing "managed" in this way, the costs of participation in, continue to suffer from soaring, which is suspected of being been "hooked" the value of gold, I referring to the fees .. such as that of the next winter has been an increase of just 1 / 3 compared last year .. is 33% .. inflation of the kind perhaps in the immediate post-war Germany .. if inflation in the strict sense .. in reality, what passes as a side effect of overcrowding .. where was this is definitely a recipe: keep it up, and a long season, the only boat on the race course would be to the Committee, addressed the crowd!
Obviously this can not be said, perhaps this is said in the dark corner of this unknown column or on some mail sent to the captains of the fleet (and thank goodness someone has taken the trouble to send those mails!), because you always smile politely and thank all, despite everything and despite everything that is not done by those who are responsible for what.
And in all this there are still those (lucky) believes that to be the only class that makes for a Zonal average of 15-16 boats on the water, more than 20 on several occasions , not to mention the national team in June with more boats Campitaliano constitutes some way .. well .. the facts show the contrary, show that despite the excellent and invaluable work of moral suasion of NDZ , however, is not so .. that is not enough that the current situation, alas, not enough .. indeed.
As to what to do not later, is known to most people, so it would be superfluous, and it is not my business, as far as I can only hope that something, and soon, we face specifically, in addition to smile politely, of course ..
Meanwhile still compliment Giorgio and Marco , and all those who have followed on the podium of CampZonale 2010, with the season goes again in two weeks the 'Last year a National Rosignano and then the winter of Anzio, at least at these latitudes ..
stay tuned.
PS: I like to close with the images of the test material that is conducting sparrows .. seems to suit the leopard is the next must-metallic ..
.. but not that one above is the Fuhrer's fleet Caput Mundi .. course.
