Not sure about AP posting rules, so excerpted. Also see http://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local-beat/10M-Mast-Breaks-on-Ellisons-Boat-69152032.html for a video of the Oracle yacht without the wing on it. Couldn't find a picture of the wing.

While the tech is cool, I think this development is lame. The America’s Cup should be about sailing prowess, not high-tech whiz-bang one-upsmanship.
