AC

Here is NZ's AC72 out for some test sailing. My brother saw Oracle and Prada on SF bay yesterday side by side, trailing about 10 chase boats, doing some training. He said they look like any sailboat, then you notice the size difference and they become huge. He said the wind was good and they were flying!!! Back and forth across the bay in just a few minutes. He was saying a loop of the AC course will be done in about 10 minutes so who knows how long the AC races will last... With so few boats, they should really do fleet racing and dump the match race formula.
