Be sure to watch when you can. I'm trying to learn the meaning of "cavitation". </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/americas-cup-viewers#post-1038640 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 21:35:10 +0000 Kristin SF 1038640@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah, one of my coworkers just pinged me with the race results. I was on a total news blackout until tonight when I was going to watch the recording, so bummer for me. I can understand her interest in sharing the results, I guess, considering where I work (hint hint), but still. </p> <p>Oh well, so much for suspense! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/americas-cup-viewers#post-1038568 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 20:15:34 +0000 Kristin SF 1038568@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>From the Chron:<br />Race 19, the race of the 21st century, is scheduled to start tomorrow [today!] at 1:15 p.m. PT. In the U.S., the America’s Cup Finals will be broadcast live on the NBC Sports Network. Replays will be available on the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/americascup" rel="nofollow">America’s Cup YouTube channel</a>. Internationally, the America’s Cup Final can be viewed in more than 170 territories. All racing is also live on <a href="http://www.youtube.com/americascup" rel="nofollow">America’s Cup YouTube channel</a> (subject to territorial restrictions).</p> <p>I just checked my NBC Sports channel and it's on right now. Taping to watch tonight.</p> <p>The announcer just showed Larry and mentioned he missed a keynote at Open World yesterday to watch the race. Probably a good decision, sounds like yesterday's racing was awesome. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/americas-cup-viewers#post-1038512 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 18:22:00 +0000 MsMaven 1038512@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My DH was invited to go to the Friday races last week. It was a gorgeous day, but only one race because of the wind. &nbsp;Now he's really into it. &nbsp;He watches on his iPhone at work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/americas-cup-viewers#post-1038196 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 04:25:26 +0000 Ginkgo 1038196@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My husband raced catamarans for years so we have made the one hour drive to the SF waterfront several times to watch the races and otherwise watch on tv everyday (channel 11 NBC, Kellygirl). Very exciting! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/americas-cup-viewers#post-1038184 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 03:52:32 +0000 Classically Casual 1038184@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the pics, Goldenpig.&nbsp; For those of you in the Bay Area, it must really be fun to see this in person.&nbsp; The Oracle boat has sailed so close to the pier at the end, the spectators could probably distinguish eye brows on the crew.&nbsp; Where I am, a channel called NBC Sports has been carrying the races. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/americas-cup-viewers#post-1038149 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 02:45:57 +0000 goldenpig 1038149@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, we watched the races on Sunday. My kiddo pics are in my <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-fall-2013-motg-capsule-and-why-i-still-dont-like-capsules" rel="nofollow">capsule thread</a>. DH has been going out to the races whenever he has a day off. Tomorrow he has a day off and is going to watch the final, how exciting! They have totally come from behind--it was 8-1 and New Zealand only needed one more to win. The US won the next seven races and now it's tied 8-8 and tomorrow is the finish! Here's some pics he took of the boats and a dolphin in the water. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/americas-cup-viewers#post-1038140 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 02:33:53 +0000 ClaraT 1038140@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I feel terrible that I haven't seen any of the races as I live quite near. The hype has been unbelievable and really put me off. I couldn't imagine a boat race being exciting, but now I have seen a race on a screen and the boats are amazing. They fly, they don't sail... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/americas-cup-viewers#post-1038124 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 02:02:45 +0000 annagybe 1038124@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm so behind on the America's Cup. I was completely flummoxed and aghast at the multi-hulls.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/americas-cup-viewers#post-1038122 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 01:55:22 +0000 Beth 1038122@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the America's Cup! So graceful and challenging at the same time. I'm a lazy, fair-weather sailor and I've never gone above 6 knots, but tearing around on those boats looks like a blast.</p> <p>I wonder if Anna's been watching? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/americas-cup-viewers#post-1038109 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 01:20:38 +0000 kellygirl 1038109@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those boats are gorgeous works of art. It's amazing how fast those things go. We were fortunate enough to catch a race during the Louis Vuitton cup in the Bay this summer. So fun to watch! I haven't watched any on tv--except the news. (I can never figure out what channel anything is on these days--Direct TV is totally overwhelming. My poor brain can barely put together a capsule!)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/americas-cup-viewers#post-1038093 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 01:03:04 +0000 abc 1038093@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds exciting, I will have to see if I can find any coverage on TV locally.</p> <p>Goldenpig just posted a thread about her MOTG capsule and I believe she mentioned they were watching one of the races. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/americas-cup-viewers#post-1038086 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 00:58:41 +0000 Classically Casual 1038086@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The finals have been happening most afternoons (PT) in San Francisco Bay. The final race is tomorrow. I don't sail, and know nothing about the sport, but I've been hooked. The boats are so beautiful. They're using huge catamarans. They're so dramatic, and the crew members run from one side to the other, looking like they'll plunge into the ocean at any moment. And they go really fast when there's wind.. Each race doesn't last very long.<br /> It's a different version of beauty to my eyes. The TV coverage has been pretty good. </p>
