Which is not necessarily a favourite place of mine from which to review things. I have kind of always been a if you want to know what the weather s doing, stick your head out the companionway hatch kind of guy. So like many, early on I thought the 36th America s Cup may have been a bit of a fizzer, but the deeper we got into the event, the better it all seemed, and the more you got into it.
So the current talk is of the AC75s closing in on 55 knots, which in foil tech terms is a bit like hitting the speed of sound (Mach 1). Paul Larsen on Sail Rocket 2 showed us that you need to be on super cavitating foils to break through this barrier caused by the vaporisation, and it would seem the current set up is way too fat for that. ....

Collingwood great Peter Moore has endorsed an external candidate to replace now former president Eddie McGuire.

Moore said someone like former Swimming Australia president John Bertrand could be the person to replace McGuire.
Bertrand, who has held a range of top jobs in Australia sport, is currently chairman of the Sport Australia Hall of Fame and famously skippered Australia to victory in the 1983 America’s Cup. ....

I watched the dramatic events unfold in the early stages of the Prada Cup last weekend. I must admit that subconsciously I was hoping to dislike the whole event.
Instead, I found myself riveted to the vision. Not because of tactical match-racing, which is almost non-existent, and not because of the personalities involved, but because of the sheer awesomeness of the technology.
So much seems counterintuitive: Seven and a half tonnes of boat lifted out of the water by a gentle breeze, balancing on two contact points. Boat speeds of 30 knots in 10 knots of wind. Looking for wind shifts ahead of you when sailing downwind. The concepts around all this take a lot of getting used to, even for a someone who has been sailing for 40 years. ....
