If you look at the comments below the trivia question post, Bill Newberry has answered the question correctly. He was not, however, the first to answer.  The winner is Dale Robertson - the J24 District Governor for Eastern Canada - who somehow got on our email distribution list.  Kudos to Dale.  Either he’s very tuned in to te America’s Cup, or he’s a regular Scuttlebutt reader.  (Note that the link to Scuttlebutt is to the issue in which the trivia question and answer appeared and in which also appeared a blurb about Hall Maine’s hand in creating our new website.)

I also recieved a correct answer from Jess Harris, who is also apparently, a Scuttlebutt reader.  She actually beat Bill to the punch.  That’s what happens, Bill, when you get old and move to the PHRF fleet — you lose your reflexes.
