Sad to see that this is what "coverage" of boat racing has come to. An iphone feed with a couple of guys occasionally saying something about the boats or whether their media passes are worth anything, while a boat roars by every 20 seconds or so.

Sorry C_Spray I was the idiot that was asking about my media pass. LOL I didn't realize that Kellie was Live streaming from her flippin' IPhone when I was talking to her until she motioned and pointed at her phone. . They had some horrible luck today with that live stream. We had applied for Media Passes for Hammer Down Boating and we never heard anything back from SBI. - Cheers

Was it connection related on your end? When using a Verizon hotspot running Continental tire challenge we had that problem. Not fun... I hope you guys get it ironed out by the next race. Lost speed channel, slim coverage of any racing of note.... We need feeds like this!

I know the crew from SBI, Stan, Rodrick, Kellie, and Mike Lee do the best the can with the cards they are dealt. Some of the Live Streams are very good. But, seriously, how is it possible of ALL places, that the internet or wireless service could be this bad in NYC/Jersey City?
