Posts: 890 Dunedin Causeway, FL | The ACWS continues in Bermuda on October 16-18. "Two 25 minute races are scheduled per day to fit with 90 minutes for a TV show produced by America’s Cup TV (ACTV). It will be broadcast globally."
In the USA NBS Sports Network has their show scheduled for Sunday, October 18 at 2:00 pm for 90 minutes. Maybe this time we will get to see the whole thing.
The Sunday afternoon TV broadcast will begin just a few minutes after the last race has ended. That's nearly live!

Well...as a graphics guy - they're kinda stuck with that oval being part of the logo and there isn't THAT much you can do with it other than surround it with some swooshes and swipes. It might just be only a minimal, cost effective, graphics package on a boat that is expected to be pushed to the point that it gets damaged and/or has a second round of modifications already planned. I thought the other things Land Rover has done on the boats looked pretty sharp.

Go Larry! I saw that a couple of months ago - it should be no surprise that one of the guys running the race is in marketing. That's pretty smart.

The Texel champs, too! Texel... please! That's a freaking beach party with a little sailing thrown in to break up the day. The archipelago boys and girls are who they want, they want people that are totally into pain and misery.
