I need a faster yacht!

[SimbaDog]

There I was today, 14 knots of wind in Plymouth Sound & I'm on a broad reach doing a nice 6.5 knots All of a sudden & I'm overtaken by the team Korea America's Cup boat flying a hull & doing I reckon about 30 knots

Flippin eck, they go well

You should have reported them. This from the QHM's NTM for the America's Cup:

AC45 catamarans and their support craft are exempt from the port speed limit whilst in the port during races and official practices. Outside these times they remain fully obliged to comply with the International Regulations for the Prevention of Collisions at Sea and local orders.

Odd way of looking at things. You'd rather invest your 50k or whatever in a slow boat than let someone else spend 2 million to give you a fast toy to play with? Weird!

If you think you need to be doing 30 knots under sail, do you also think you'd like the First Aid team with de-fib kit, and the grey or no hair ?!

The first aid team would be good Already got the no hair
