Just finished watching a full replay of yesterday’s AC “racing”.

What a joke! It’s like a bad sitcom. “Yachts” that don’t turn up for the start, “yachts” that can’t sail because of software glitches, “yachts” that need to be towed by speedboats to get up on their foils, “yachts” that then fall off their foils and wallow around like dead ducks.

I think what we’re watching is the inevitable end game of an extreme, mutated, unworkable development that will have to be put out of its misery by the next Challenger of Record protocol. I am reminded of when Reliance was such a distorted idea of a “yacht” that the Cup turned to J Boats.
