Americas cup - any interest over there?

Todays race, race 10 was the closest/best race so far of the regatta....America's Cup Videos & Highlights | Sailing - TVNZ Sport

I watched today's race. Those boats are insane! Speeds up to 39 knots. That's fast on a powerboat. Fastest sailboat I've been on was a corsair trimaran we were doin 19 knots and it felt like flying.

well it came down to the wire, both teams on match point, team U.S.A. won the cup today, team N.Z. were beaten by a better team with more money & resourses. but half of team U.S.A. were Kiwi's & both boats were built here in N.Z. so i guess we've got nothing to moan about, what a fantastic race series it was!!!!

NOTE to all it took a English in the USA team to win LOL

I tried to watch two different races and one was called because of wind speed being too high in SF Bay. The other was great to watch. The USA team won but the NZ team was favored to win. Their win got about 20 seconds of air coverage on the PBS Newshour last night.

I think all are available for replay on youtube, and they were surprisingly watchable... Congrats to Team Oracle for winning, Congrats to Team New Zealand for forcing the Americans to learn how to race these 72 foot cats. Were it not for some bad luck with weather, the cup would have gone to New Zealand. Funny thing, I have a americas cup baseball hat I wear... at a restaurant the other day I was asked what golf tournament that was from...
