Hey James You need to stop confusing Orion and Alpha! Alpha was 2nd in all races with Gashby and Spithill

"The Canadians overhauled the Australians on the first leg, but then there was a full on match race for the remainder of the race, as good a demonstration as anyone could wish that these complex boats can be match raced." Full on match race? Where was that? There was not one match race tactic used the whole day.

"It is the only offshore team international competition left.” Andrew McIrvine Really? what is the ISAf offshore Team world championship then, the Sardinia Cup? 8 teams all from different countries and arguably a higher quality fleet with top boats from the Farr 40 fleet and Melges 32 fleet

My (virtual) hair stands up on end everytime I watch this

What a lovely bloke - good luck to him and all the team

We've got fantastic footage made by Sunset & Vine APP Www.syzmotheuro2010.ch

Highlighting comments is an improvement, no sweat! Not that I take even the gospel as gospel, and Montgomery is capable of spin. But Rome harboring cats? Who has ever heard of such a thing? .... http://www.netflix.com/Movie/Cats_of_Rome/70091482 http://goeurope.about.com/cs/rome/a/rome_cats.htm

Thanks - did spot this and rumour exchange is stating Rome in solid wingsail cats but until we hear something categoric from our friends in San Fran don't take anything as the gospel... even from the eminent Montcommentry. And apologises for are rejigging the forum area. We launched this prematurely and instead will be focussing on these comments.

No sooner do I return from summer vacation (It was hot and delightful, thanks for asking), than I find there's been a housecleaning here at TDS where all the nasty gossip has been chucked out! Here's some more, regardless; an intriguing blend of fact and fantasy...? http://www.radiosport.co.nz/SportsNews/spyac/Detail.aspx?id=180821 http://www.stuff.co.nz/sunday-star-times/sport/latest-sport/4040599/Orac...

What about some official spectator boats? If thay're not too big and have a suitably aware "pilot" to advise the skipper where to go, they could possibly be allowed closer to the racing than other spectator craft. Add in a good commentator and maybe some big screen graphics and you have a few rather expensive ticket sales.

Rob A, I take my hat off to you

W60 "Heineken" / "YAMAHA 1" located in Adriatic Sea. Boat received nice new interior and is offered for occasional day chater. Austrian owned

Thats so sick!!!!!

Mr. Boyd, With the I4C just around the corner, I hope that you have plans to cover the event. If I could get time off from work, I would offer to help with the coverage. I am hoping to be there for set-up day and if so I will send you some photos. But other than that, I do hope that you have plans. Thanks, Tom

Coutts seems to talk more than sail these days...

Stunning!!! I'm sure that the class won't ban it.

Any chance to see you in Silvaplana with it ?

And I already thought the foiling Moth was the coolest sailing development in my life time... /Martin
