Sailboat Porn!

Notice how wide they’ve gotten, and with twin rudders. Another innovation I don’t see here is a move to racing scows with wide bows.

At least they have set this race series up with several classes - rather than the made-to-measure foolishness of the old America’s Cup rules that only created high-resistance, slow speed no-innovation bureaucratic limits.

Here’s a different kind of sailboat porn.

Me like. Can’t afford, but still like.

Video taken aboard the Comanche during the race (3 min)

Whoa, had NO idea a sailboat could leave a wake like that one. Guess that's why I'm a clueless landlubber!

Think those guys felt absolutely privileged to be aboard? I do.

This video must make all the white privilege race baiters out there bounce off the walls of their hateful little minds.
