s2-

that was some race, huh?

i love to see them play games like
faking each other out with fake jibs.

from what i hear, the new zealander's
have it in the bag for the america's
cup races.

apparently they made some very crucial
adaptations to their boat which resulted in
the same effect as having a longer water line,
and, by the time the boats in the current
series found out about it, it was too late
for them to implement the same changes.

all this, of course, is unsubstantiated
rumour <s>
