Looking forward to the RBYAC, great to see these young teams battling it out on the water in AC45 catamarans.
From the following article on americascup.com

With less than three weeks to go before the Red Bull Youth America’s Cup, training is well underway and the excitement and anticipation is building rapidly among the teams.
Next World Energy Sailing’s skipper Arthur Ponroy described the current feeling among the sailors. “Everyone is very happy, very excited to be here. There is a very good atmosphere,” he said.
That atmosphere is due in large part to the teams’ surroundings.
The RBYAC base shares Piers 30/32 with Emirates Team New Zealand and Luna Rossa Challenge and the young sailors are thrilled to be neighbors to the big boys. “It’s great to be so close to them. It lets us dream a little bit. Maybe in five or 10 years it will be us – we’ll be in these big team camps,” said Ponroy.
