2011 New York YC Invitational Cup Fantasy Sailing Competition Survey

The New York YC's second Invitational Cup will run from Tuesday, Sept. 13, through Saturday, Sept. 18. The inaugural competition, a true one-design regatta featuring some of the world's most renown yacht clubs, was a tremendous success. This time around, with more teams competing, and more teams aware of the level of sailing required to win, it should be even better. Of course the big question is who's going to win? Well, let's make it a little more interesting.
Pick the top five teams, then answer two tiebreakers. The winner will get a prize package, which is yet to be determined, but will be announced shortly. All entries must be in before the start of racing on Tuesday (11 a.m., EDT)
