OK, first off, it was blowing pretty good. Second, it looked like they had some issue with their big jib, looked like it was flogging or even dragging in the water as they were going over? Third, if they are racing cats in wind, somebody's going swimming. No big surprise there. I wish there was a better video of what was going on, on board, leading up to the bows going in.

But hey, that's cat racing. Not as -dry- as racing monos, not nearly as slow and boaring either... <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />


The iShares Cup is a professional sailing event.
The boats are (mostly) fully sponsored and those business that are the sponsors should expect good competition and exposure for their company's. To be completive you must finish the race and hardware failure this far into the season is not good for the program.
It sure looks like a great gig! <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />
