US Sailing Statement On Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Sailing IPC Decision | US Sailing: "The following is a statement from US Sailing, the national governing body for sailing, on the recent decision by the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) to not include sailing at the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games. “Yesterday’s news about Paralympic sailing being dropped from the slate of sports at the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games is highly disappointing. Our sport attracts a diverse group of disabled athletes across the world, as demonstrated by the three fleets of sailors from 14 countries competing in Miami last week at ISAF Sailing World Cup Miami. US Sailing will join ISAF, IFDS and the national governing bodies of our fellow Paralympic sailing nations to lead an appeal of this decision in the fight for reinstatement of Paralympic sailing at the Tokyo 2020 Games.” – Tom Hubbell, President of US Sailing"

World News Videos | ABC World News

5 boaters rescued from sailboat after its mast broke 200 miles off North Carolina coast | Fox News:

Note the profile in Forbes, September 29, 2014 issue of Forbes Life:
On A Gunboat Catamaran, You Can Have Your Martini And 30 Knots, Too - ForbesLife: "...Builder Peter Johnstone, who left his family’s J/Boats yacht empire to start Gunboat, says the safety fears about multihull yachts are overblown. Johnstone says he’s navigated through 70-knot gales in the North Atlantic by hauling down the sails, closing in the mammoth salon and pulling up the centerboards that help the boat track straight through the waves. When a rogue wave hits from the side, he says, the Gunboat just skids sideways with it, instead of absorbing tons of water on the deck like a monohull... As for Cohen, he plans to proselytize about the merits of carbon fiber and twin hulls all summer in New York, then take Rainmaker down to the Caribbean for the winter... "

The Badger Herald · Turning the tide: Wisconsin sailing among elite - The Badger Herald: "...this is hardly an ordinary group of 55 sailors, the number of Wisconsin students claiming spots on the roster of the sailing team. Although that number is closer to 40 in terms of consistently active members, together they make up the biggest team in college sailing. Part of the reason behind that, though, is Wisconsin is not like many college sailing teams, at least not like those teams on the east coast where sailing, squash and fencing are just as much a part of the athletic cultures of the universities as football and basketball...."
