Congrats!  Boat didn't break in half this year?  I was watching "destoyed in seconds" and they showed Australia's boat sink in 1995.  Only America's cup boat to ever sink.  ;D

Seriously though, Congrats!  America doesn't excel at much anymore.  I doubt that we retake the trophy soon.

here's a tip: If in years gone by you didn't systematically cheat each year to keep the cup, you wouldn't have offended the "Australian spirit of fair play" and Australia wouldn't have been interested on a national level and therefore you probably would still have it.

We cheated eh?  If you say so.  I don't have the energy to even look into this one.  I think it is good that an Island nation has the cup.

Carry on!

FWIW ,I'm glad to see the Ozzies have it. Oz has been a longtime friend of the US and IMO deserve it. Takes a lot of tech and hard work to accomplish that.
