It’s well established that I am a fan of boats and things nautical, but I will say: if you enjoy watching sailboat racing on television, or in person, you must keep a defibrillator handy when you watch golf. At least in the past, the America’s Cup featured sailboats that were pleasing to the eye under sail, but not anymore. Like a lot of sports (Baseball comes to mind.), the powers that be have tinkered with the venerable race’s format, essentially turning it upside down for no apparent reason, other than to add “offense,” in the parlance of other degraded sports. Add offense they did. The AC now is an unsightly conglomeration of different types of boats, including multihulls, that plane around the course at ridiculous speeds. Why don’t they just allow motorboats and be done with it? This is not to say any of it was interesting to watch ever. (Clarification: I suppose I should add that I did enjoy watching the America’s Cup races in the 12-meter days, not for sporting excitement but for the aesthetics. Watching sailboats in the breeze is like watching a sunset or a babbling brook. Oh, to have seen the races in the days of the J-class boats! But there is none of that in the AC anymore. Yes, this counts as an update.)

I’ve been browsing online more than 4 hours today, yet I never found
any interesting article like yours. It’s pretty worth enough
for me. Personally, if all web owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the internet will be a lot more useful than ever before.

I think what you wrote made a ton of sense. But, what about this?
suppose you wrote a catchier post title? I mean, I don’t wish to tell you how to
run your blog, but suppose you added a post title to maybe
get folk’s attention? I mean A Mighty Wind – Home of
the comic strip Arlo & Janis is a little plain. You ought to look at Yahoo’s home page and see how they create article titles to get people to open the
links. You might add a related video or a related pic or two to grab people interested about what you’ve got
to say. Just my opinion, it could make your posts a little bit more interesting.
