70 knot winds hit Americas Cup contenders!

Barry, Thanks for the link. Truly amazing. Great clip of the boats being towed to where they started sailing by an outboard tender at foiling speeds.

Heck they could have stayed in Pensacola, seen 90 to 115 knots of breeze, and a 3 billion dollar bridge destroyed by a barge--cutting off Gulf Breeze from Pensacola! Would have avoided the air freight bill to Aukland with all of the same excitement!
 
WOW, Some winds, a Container blown off a shipping truck on the bridge, and more. But they were not out sailing in that. Fun to watch these mono's fly. A whole lotta boat up in the air over those little water wings.
