As long as we get to the finish line at least 1 second ahead I don't really care

Ah cumon, a good thrashing is good for 'em.... 380M aproaching the 2nd mark... long as it don't make the boys too cocky

Would be cool if there was a live feed for this stuff somewhere. Would be easy to do on a computer... just top-down 2D graphics, showing boats and markers and wind.

Hope they pull it off

That's what I was about to say. Bikes are far more important than something non-interactive like a television

1:27 at the third mark....now leading by 480m...absolutely kicking arse

Oh I got the farkin things, thought they were all here, all over tha godamn place.

Wow, pushing 500M, intersting that they trusted their tactics more than their boatspeed on that first beat. Wonder if the Kiwis found some new trick gear for this race...

we took a minute outta them on the first beat....sounded like we got a freakish wind shift on the right side and Oracle headed out left....the promising thing is how much further we got away after that...out and out faster....

Yer, hard to make direct comparisons when they're that far apart though, woulda bin nice to see a good tacking duel. Not at the expense of actualy losing ya unerstand...

Think that'll do me... off to bed.
