Guest Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Shite. That's an interesting read as to why, especially as they were regarded as one of the better funded teams. Link to post Share on other sites
smithy09 50 Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Hmmmmm. Yes. I always thought that the high tech solution Russell and Larry came up with might be a little too expensive to attract the same level of competition as we had with monohulls in Valencia. I wouldn't be surprised to see only 1 or 2 challengers make it right to the cup... Wouldn't just having the cup in AC45s make sense?? Link to post Share on other sites
Mothership 6 Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Wouldn't just having the cup in AC45s make sense?? Well - yes. But when you have billions of dollars, the world - and one's actions - don't have to make sense. This is how we ended up with two 90ft x 90ft behemoths vying for a certain trophy.
