Yes, is. And I think Endeavor II was steel, also. Perhaps DSK should
have said "no steel yacht won the America's Cup."

Correct!

I found this link while I was trying to prove that you were wrong. I must
admit that I had thought that she was built of wood.

She's a sweet boat and still sailing the Atlantic. Steel is a great
material in the right hands.

Thanks for the link Donal I did also notice in your link that Endeavor
II was also steel and had the tallest mast ever on any Americas cup
boat.

His story reminds me of a movie I watched yestersday called Wind.
If
you havent seen it I recommend it.

Guy loses the American Cup & girl, goes out into the desert and
with
the help of many he builds a boat at the Deadman's Flat yacht club
and
wins back the cup from the Ozzies and his girl.

Great sailing scenes, International 14 - 12 meter boats.

Doug,
Sometimes don't you get the feeling that maybe Joe isn't Joe but really
Terry?

Believe me, I'm not "jelious" at all. I spent 8 years riding around on big
steel boats... which is one reason why I think steel boats are for dummies
that either 1- can't keep from crashing into things or 2- intend to get in
the face of people who shoot at you

DSK

Don't worry, Wally...that will never happen...all that cold Celtic blood
that runs through my veins is only temporarily rendered warm by a bowl of
oatmeal...
