America's Cup

With the smaller AC 45's in San Francisco for some 'friendly' racing, the new big AC 72's are starting to be launched. This is the front of the Artemis AC72, the Oracle72 will launch next week and the New Zealand72 was launched last week. I would love to see these big cats on the water, the smaller 45 foot one are already great to watch, but to see a  72 foot cat speeding along would be great. I will have to go to the City and get a first hand look at these amazing craft. The true America's Cup will be next year, but the run up will have a lot of racing and testing of the big cats. Should be a good year to come for sailing in SF.
