I watched the TV coverage of the VO70s a month ago or so. The coverage was on ITV4 and was really good, gave technical information and a good insight into the racing. Another interesting point was it gave a very personal insight into the rigours of the race. It's a real shame it was on at "stupid o'clock" in the morning.

Plenty of discussion on Sailing Anarchy if you want it. There was a blow-by-blow account by the Baltimore locals going on yesterday.

Am I alone in this?

I think the lack of response speaks volumes...
