Louis Vitton Cup....America's Cup to Follow

San Francisco, Ca

I blazed a trail across the Golden Gate Bridge from my home in Marin County to watch The Italians and Swedes battle it out for privilege to challenge the Americans for the cup in September.

Team Oracle Downwind at 35 knots approaching Alcatraz
These cats are truly amazing.....to watch these machines jibe around a windward mark at 35 knots on hydrofoils is just crazy talk!

Jibing around the windward mark 30 knots
