Exactly....Boat 2 made derogatory comments based on my gender and age. So, the race committee focused on getting Boat 2 to apologize for the comment instead of addressing the actual foul and failure to take the penalty on course. Oh well. I do appreciate the all-male RC sticking up for me (but in a way doesn't that just reinforce the "weak and helpless" image?) but I was really more interested in a ruling on the foul than an apology.
