Join leading America's Cup commentator Peter Montgomery who has been at every America's Cup since 1980, as he shares his favourite moment from a dozen America's Cups and the companion series the Louis Vuitton Cup.

Many would agree with him that the Louis Vuitton Cup Final between America's One and Prada Challenge was the best, most dramatic, tense and tactical racing of the modern America's Cup era.

Here PJ, along with co-commentators including Chris Law - who many would agree were the best ever commentary team - takes us through his favourite America's Cup Moment.
