SI: "Our readers deserve that"

TO THOSE OF YOU WHO CELEBRATE IT, Happy Memorial Day. SAILING ILLUSTRATED is not taking a break on this USA national holiday, at least not until later this afternoon. Again today we will be bringing you race reports immediately after each of the three scheduled Louis Vuitton Qualifier races in BDA along with other yacht racing news and features. Indeed, at SI we take pride in covering the sport, at least here in North America, 24/7. And not just by cutting and pasting press releases. No breaks in coverage for holidays or weekends. Our readers, many of whom are outside the USA, deserve that.

SI officially went live only two weeks ago today, and we are stunned by the number of daily views. Your many kind notes are much appreciated. Thanks for the interest, suggestions and support! –TFE
