    It's 2:14 a.m. and I'm having trouble sleeping (which is why I'm at my desk instead of tucked into my warm bed), so I'll be brief:

    Lame!

    Changeing the name to America's Cup World Series, in boats that any punter can sail, and saying it's the pinnacle of sailing...

    That's Lame ;)

    Sound's very patriotic too...

    Keith, welcome. I think any sailing in NZ is always good to watch... It's one place I've always wanted to compete at. Did you watch the LVPS at all, there was some great racing? Cheers
