Yes, NBC bought VS long ago...

Kenny is doing a great job, but it's obvious that there aren't enough guys out there with experience racing these boats to call the play. He keeps talking about gybe/sets...

Anyone else notice that whenever the guys mention the Artemis tragedy, or accidents, they stop midstream? I'm thinking the guys in their ear pieces are self-censoring...

Getting live video on cellular and internet now with the app. Again, the onboard cameras are surreal.

Resolution keeps going in and out, can't imagine that NBC Like this feed. With all of the $ they are putting into the broadcast, you would think they could get a handle on the resolution!

My video has been flawless. The onboard cameras and audio is what I envisioned when they designed this race years ago, exceeds my expectations. Now give me a quad view screen with the ability to go full screen at will.

Artemis has learnt a lot in 10 days though, almost vertical learning curve.
Interesting to hear that Ainslie won two races against Spithill today.

Must have been with the old boat, Jobson said it before the start of the race.

Wow...nice luff by LR at the start, but Artemis has a lot of work to do if they are going to win tomorrow, and not much time to work on it.

Things are not looking good for Oracle with the Rule 69 inquiry going forward.
Apparently they loaded their pelican strikers with 5 pounds of lead, don't really see how that would make them go faster but strange nonetheless.

Race 3 stats

Here's the replay race 3. Spectacular cinematography. The video from helicopters and chase boats were rock stable. The onboard camera depth of field was awesome, especially on the LR boat. You get the sensation of 3D from the full range depth of field and contrast. Onboard audio from the boats and sailors add the sensation of being there.
