Glad to see that so many have a sense of humour. As the song goes "That don't impress me much". Too many places that these things cannot go. I'll give it to their owners & skippers however, they are anchoring up in places that have never been used by boats like these.
This years America's Cup is turning out to be the best ever, even with the shifty weather. 2 days with not enough wind to race. 1 day, today, a blowout with too much wind to race.
Yesterday was borderline too much wind & the damage sustained by the boats showed it. They were approaching speeds of 50mph. Lots of videos on YouTube for anyone who wants to see sailboats go almost 3 times the wind speed.
