America’s Cup Racing Makes Breezy Reading

Your coverage of the 12-meter racing in Australia has been terrific and I look forward to more of the same as the America’s Cup finals unfold. The 12s that have been racing there are the world’s finest, and it should be noted that in a 3 1/2-hour race, a loss of two minutes, for example, is less than 1% and comparable to a 100-99 basketball score, or 50-49 1/2 in football, which might really wake up a stadium full of fans.
