So man? what you waiting for sail?
Commentator – did he swallow a box of superlatives? Really killed the
enjoyment
how fast do these boats max out at?
It’s not just the crew, it’s about design and technology.
lol only sailors find this interesting i reckon. this will be me in 15 yrs
i hope 😀
They are custom
To Nick3delve. What about Murray Jones Afterguard (NZ), Simon Daubney
Upwind Trimmer (NZ), Warwick Fluery Mainsail Trimmer (NZ), Rodney Ardern
Runner/Pitman (NZ), Mike Drummond Afterguard (NZ), Peter Evans Afterguard
(NZ), Matt Mitchell Mid-Bow (NZ), Dean Phipps Bow (NZ), Craig Satterthwaite
Grinder (NZ). ALL of these people were on the sailing team for Alinghi in
the 32nd America’s Cup (thats not including all the other kiwis involved
with the design, weather teams and all that).
I understand Louis Vuitton is pulling out
aguante el Emirates Team New Zealand!!! cuando es la proxima americas
cup??????
funny that seeing that switzerland are a land locked country and alinghi
are pretty much all kiwis. your full of shit, get your facts right, alinghi
is not a national team.
Check out the huge shadow passing under the boats at 43 sec. guess its a
shark
I disagree, it is like the formula one of sailing. There are many different
races with different rules, I like that they are embracing technology.
wow this was incredible, i have seen Emirates in Gosport….
Is this the 2007 racing or the 2009?
du bist echt nicht auf dem laufenden, was?! alinghi hat nie vorgehabt mit
trimaranen zu segeln, das war oracles idee…und das einzige team, dass den
cup hinauszögert ist bmw oracle mit ihren perma-court-prozessen
@bulldog01209 you have obviously never raced as the tactics that are done
to get over that startline at maximum speed without going over too early is
an amazing thing to watch and do i know the adrenaline doing such a thing
it blows your head off
TO BARRYBOWLS04: actually I think that the majority are far from being
kiwi’s i.e Alinghi team consisted of members from Germany,United States,
Canada,Netherlands, France, Italy, Spain, Virgin Islands, Portugal, Turkey,
Ireland, the UK (from Scotland and Wales), Belgium, South Africa,
Australia, Uruguay, Argentina, Denmark, Ecuador and Switzerland. THE only
kiwi’s present were Coutts, tactician Brad Butterworth and Grant Simmer.
Kiwis are the dominant nationality onboard Alinghi
i saw this race in a DVD, the new zealenders are humiliated by alinghy!
yeya 1 1, next winner wins i rekon
The New Zealanders were sailing Alinghi
no, i reckon it is the shadow of the helicopter. You can also see the
rotors turning.
Heb dini schnorre du Dräckskiwi. HOPP ALINGHI!
@bulldog01209 thats cause u have never “match raced”; thats battle, one on
one, pure tactics, rules knowledge… i love match racing!
