Enjoyable enough, but one would think there were only a dozen yachts racing from this footage and commentary.... So SO much more to this race than just the four maxi-yachts.

I watched the start of this race in 1979 from my office on North Head; I was the US exchange to the School of Artillery. The day was beautiful and the wind direction provided a spinnaker start: from our position it looked like a spring garden being watered in the sunshine. This, to me, is yacht racing NOT what's happened to America's Cup series. AC racing today is an all out rush for speed and I think the event has lost it's mojo.

A bunch of suburban and billionaire adventurers, get into their various pet boats ranging from the diminutive to the substantial, and take on a violent ocean than has killed many, in pursuit of romantic ideal. This is cool stuff. Go the local crews, many of which will be in the race!

Looks like Commanche does not have the light wind speed compared to Law Connect. Scallywag seems to have speed but don't know if she can match the other two when the winds come up

Did andoo change their line? Isn't there a small degree/margin that doesn't count as "change of line" and need to consider distance/speed from port tack boat. It was tight but not a clear penalty in my book

How much is it to buy one of those big boats?
@goodshipkaraboudjan
6 ай бұрын
A LOT, and it costs a lot more to run and crew them. For a Super Maxi you're looking at anything up to $10m+. A decent TP52, which are seriously fast and still big, will cost about half a million. Then you have to pay for a decent skipper, navigator etc, berthing, maintenance, damage repair etc.

44:10 seriously, who TF holds the leeward wheel?! First thing I learnt as an 8 year old when Dad sold his launch and bought a yacht was ... do NOT grab the tiller while we're sailing - it is for steering, not holding on. (Second thing was don't stand on ropes; third was don't step outside the cockpit without a lifejacket).

44:30 Get your head outside the cockpit, away from your instruments and sail the boat. No one wins by looking at his instruments all the time when the wind gets light.

Yet again 7’s coverage of this truely world class event has been monofocul . Concentrated on the maxi’s and almost totally ignoring the true nuts and bolts of this race. The smaller competitors, the true handicap racers are mostly totally ignored, All in the interest of money, otherwise just to keep your clueless sponsors happy……Your contribution to this sport is laughable amongst the Australian and international sailing community. Thanks for nothing! Again!

Problem is the casual watcher won't care about a TP52, let alone the small boats, when the big girls are dueling at the front. The telecast isn't for you, me or anyone who loves sailing it's for the curious hungover mass eating xmas leftovers and watching boats. Not the worst thing, some kids (like myself) fell in love with sailing due to it.
