Guest Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 No real surprises to that result at all. I would have loved to have seen the full potential of big blue as it looks like it could be a quicker boat the LR but its something we will never know now. Bring on the finals and the Americas cup.

Deep Purple 514 Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 From a non-sailing friend so the slow boat is racing the poorly sailed boat to see who will compete against the fast boat to have a chance to race the cheating boat? Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Second time I've bothered togetup and watch a race.Verdict is the same, spectacular boats , but really dumb and boring racing. Concur. OK location, OK course, cool boats, some nice shore side action, smack talking, cheating, fancy TV shots, flash verging annoying overkill of graphics, a sh*t load of pud pulling, all the great things that make up the AC. It's all there bar actual yacht racing. It's like a lot of Aussie chicks, way hot on the eye promising a good rumble but put them to their intended use and all you find is a starfish imitating a sack of spuds.

darkside 61 Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 An opportunity for a three hour coastal classic right there. Link to post Share on other sites
gurge 0 Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Yes but won't they now trial against oracle.... I wonder if this is not oracles third or is it fourth boat anyway. So if you want to buy it ask oracle. Link to post Share on other sites
