This has been all over the news.

Perhaps but I'm living on a boat this summer and getting most of my
news from the internet.

I am truly amazed that the mast did not break in that high speed

These are the prototype boats. Local paper had it on the front page this
morning with the story. would be fun to go watch them, but the boat is in
the paint shop for a repaint, so no boat to go watch. The America's Cup
boats will be 72'.
