Martin, I thought Play Station was built many years before "The Race" was ever concieved? I thought Steve had it built just to break records, (chasing the 80' ENZA New Zealand, remember them?) then several years later, the French came up with "The Race" concept and built better cats, learning from the Playstation problems.

Someone has to be first, then the others will leapfrog the technology. Without Steve building Play Station first, I doubt if there ever would have been a "The Race" at all. And isn't there supposed to be another one soon? Anyone know the latest on that? Any new cats being built for it?


Yes that's right. Playstation was constructed before the conception of "The Race". It was the first cat of it's kind and I'm sure we can cite several examples of non-American ground breaking vessels that suffered teething problems.

I wish there was a way you guys could look past your biases.
