Racing yacht MOLTOBENE damages Girls boat and runs away to St Thomas.........
Mar 27, 2010 - 01:03

Sound familiar? Whilst the all girl crew of girlsforsail.com were racing in
the St Maarten regatta, another yacht MOLTBENE caused an incident where the
girls boat was seriously damaged - it was very lucky noone was hurt. Since
the incident, the owner Richard Ewing has avoided coming forward even
though his yacht was DISQUALIFIED by the international committe of judges
under rule 18.2(b).
What should the girls do now???
The yacht ran away from St Martin and is currently now racing in St
Thomas.
CAN THIS BE RIGHT?
CAN THIS BE FAIR
CAN THIS BE SPORTSMANLY?????
We do not think so.
The coastguard, immigration and the police are all involved but
interestingly, there is confusion as to which area of law owns the problem

Do you have a view or advice for these ladies??

More importantly, if you see MOTOBENE...what would you say to this
American gentleman?
