The technology to build and skills required to "fly" those machines is truly mind boggling all right but I wonder how those "boats" would do in Fremantle type conditions i.e. 1987 ?? I seriously doubt there will ever be a return to actual sail boats in the Americas cup but to be honest I have lost interest over the years as it is hard for me relate the Americas cup as it is to actual sailing.... and yes, an old fogey I am...
