I liked that video, reminds me of some of the videos put out by BMWO leading up to AC33. Very well done. May I suggest though that Ian Percy gets a hair cut before they film another video? Would seem appropriate.

Ah, I do have one final question though. When Mr. Ainsle stated "we invented it", in reference to the AC, who is he talking about? Is he a member of the NY Yacht Club and I missed that? Sure the actual Cup was made in Great Britian, but it wasn't worth shit until the yacht "America" won it and the NYYC re-named it the America's Cup and welcomed challengers. Seems to me the NYYC "invented" it, but what do I know?

Iain Percy always gives me the impression there is something wrong with him.
And why was there no group photo?
Like the whole team is just these three guys!
