| 121265 | 2003-02-15 01:55:00 | It's a bad first race for Team NZ. Let's hope they do better tomorrow (or whenever the next race is on). It's hard to imagine how many mechanical stuff-ups can happen in one race. | somebody (208) | ||

| 121267 | 2003-02-15 02:45:00 | Oh dear... I can remember thinking... "Gee... that water in the boat doesn't look normal..." My guess would be... water got in... the pumps or whatever to automatically pump out the water failed, forcing the first tack... added weight due to water slowed us down and put pressure on the sails... resulting in massive gear failure... So much for the idea that we could handle heavier winds better... I'm absolutely gutted.... :( Lo. |

I think in the short time the race was a race, that Team NZ showed that they have an excellent boat, with good speed. It was only the first race, plenty more to go |

| 121270 | 2003-02-15 06:54:00 | No pumps on the boats - just vents and valves, like the venturis, similar to the valve setup on the old carburettors. | Greg S (201) | ||
| 121271 | 2003-02-15 08:21:00 | I have been waching The Louis Vutton & the America's Cup on TV & on Virtual Spectator (http://www.virtualspectator.com) it is relly cool waching the boats in 3D! Go Team NEW ZEALAND!! |
