Looking good. Your cabin looks taller than others. Did you make it taller or is it just look that way because of the stage of constriction and the squared off front?

That is right up there with the prettiest I have seen. Boy, I hope when I find a job I can get started. don't know if I can do as good but something to work for. Love the colors!

This happen in every sport these days. If it weren't for foreigners, the US wouldn't have Hockey. I think it is kind of sad and dilutes the competition, but it is a fact of the sports world. I would think it would be easier to take being beaten by your own countrymen than some other country with that country's sailors, if you understand what I am trying to say. NZ team doesn't really have anything to be ashamed of. They have had bad luck, but when things went right they were right there in the race. I started out picking Alinghi, don't know why for sure. Anyone at that level of expertise has nothing to be ashamed of. Just wish the wind would cooperate.

Today is a day off for the America's Cup!? What have they been doing for the last several days? Are they going to have a race or not? :twisted:

That sounds like a french tactician type plan. I sure hope they go today. I miss it!

Been some exciting racing. I'd like to see another windy day like the first race so they can see if the NZ boat will hold up. It is fast enough, but will it stay together. They should move the race to SE Washington, US. We've had a good wind for 4 days straight. Run it on the great Columbia river! Can't wait for the next race, I actually like it better than NASCAR With a French tactician, they won't turnaround and sail the other way will they (just kidding)
