Admittedly nothing to do with Miatas but Wow! Anybody else watching the
Americas Cup Challenger finals from Auckland? America1 and the Italian boat
Prada, head to head for the cup and tied 3/3 in best of 9.  The racing and
seamanship onboard these boats has been just outstanding, some of the most
phenomenal I've ever seen.  Nothing like using 100 million bucks worth of
boats, crew, sweat, tears, planning and pride going at it yards and
sometimes feet apart as a gut check to test your mettle.  Truly awesome, and
a real joy to watch for any sailor.  Can't wait for the Feb 18th and the
start of the Americas Cup
races.
