Right, it was nineteen eighty eight and the America's Cup
controversy was in full swing. It was today, in nineteen
eighty eight that Dennis Connor beat New Zealand two ZIP
in the final race of the America's Cup. He beat
us in a multi holed boat at San Diego. And
we remember the arguments and the press conferences back in

(00:51):
eighty eight. It was a mismatch, and I think it
was significantly because the challenge he yacht was not tasked.

that I work, can sit in a press conference and
tell lies that really troubles me.
