Wow, I'm must say I'm impressed by the China Team. For how long are they involved in the AC ? 2 months?
They already have two parternships a new one with the chinese firm SilverMarine
that manufactures inflatable boats (that can always be useful) and another one with TAG Heuer. On the end of May the Swiss watchmaker became "official chronograph, timekeeper and sunglasses partner of the China Team Challenge for the America's Cup 2007"

Do you think that could mean they're going to be competitive?
