For the multihull side of the sailing spectrum I dont see how BMWOs win will do us any good.
Ellison already said that his view of the future is scaled up RC44s (RC88??), that just sounds like a bad joke to me.
No I think that the guy selling overpriced handbags will get back into the game and they will go back to reducing the AC to another match racing series in slow boats between posh yachtclubs.

Until BWMO looses the cup, then comes another DoG match and Zilla gets rolled out of the shed again. (Wishful thinking)

Why does the BMWO show sound like they record it in the bathroom?

Improved a little again at 090 degrees direction 6 knots at the committee boat. And the race committee are now reported to be clearing the possible start area, asking spectator and media boats to move.

3knots at A mark? YGTBSM.

I thought they were going to have a sailboat race...

Which camp full of asshats picked this race site? I really don't care who wins, both owners are jerk-offs and the teams are so mixed there really is no "National Pride", but I would like to see a decent race...in winds above 6 knots...
