Team origin will either have to get their heads out of the sand and get moving, or very quietly slip out the side door.

As 95% of Americas Cup races in history have been "boat A takes an early lead and continues to extend for the rest of the race" does it really make much difference?

Hi Doug,

Watch the last race of the F18 Worlds, Darren Bundock and Hugh Styles.

Match racing in Multihull's, the Czech Tornado sailors also did Match racing as part of their Nationals and it was a great success.
