I've been watching the Prada races and wow, the boats are really something to say the least. Very strange looking vessels for sure and just amazing how they fly. Really concerned with the American team, they seem to be struggling and nearly capsized in one race I watched. Anyway, the technology is wild but I have to say that I thought the flying cats looked cooler than the monohull for sure. Anyway, I was just wondering if anyone else was checking it out?

How are you watching? I saw NBC Sports wants $175 for a pass.

American Magic in salvage mode after capsize. All crew safe. Only thing keeping her from Davy Jones's Locker are the support boats and flotation buoys.
