Is anyone watching the America's Cup?

I admit that up until about a week ago I never really watched much of it, probably because I don't understand everything that goes on.

But I have watched the last few races, as a Kiwi it's getting frustrating now. So close but yet so far... JUST ONE MORE RACE is all we need aarrgghh !!

I happened on it the other day and it was pretty good, those boats are hauling ass. almost 50 mph under sail that is ridiculous

Yeah it's nuts when you think about it. I used to work on QE2 and that used to said along at around 30 knots/hr, these sailing boats are flying over the finish line at close to 40 !!

I think NZ are pretty low in confidence right now, I can see USA winning it. Only 3 races to go.

That was gutting. We had a good start but at the end of the day Oracle was just too fast for us.

Good win for the USA.
