The Oracle team and all the others were pretty impressive out there during all the practice times I had seen them while working in SF. I was working right on Pier 27/29 while they were out there testing right in front of us. Pier 29 was being built out as the Louis Viton main midway and vendor area for the Americas Cup. The way these boats handled the waters and wind was just spectacular and it was a shame that they imposed the "high wind" shutdowns they did during the racing. All the teams pretty much had the 'high wind thing' handled pretty well and it was amazing out there.

Since we won again! looks like SF Bay will be hosting yet another Americas Cup! This is truly something to see if you get the chance.
