It really has been tough weather for many US & International catamaran events in the last 2 years, A-Cat North Americans being the latest victim....Will 2012 be the melting of the polar ice caps as some predict?

ESPN Classics, November 4 @ 7:00 PM.

Nice, I knew it was coming up soon.

Safe to assume that is 7pm EST? I'm betting there's a shot of my boat on there, the red sail draws the lense like a hampster to a wheel.

Anyone catch it? It's on my sisters dvr, I'm too cheap to pay for satellite/cable. I worked late last night and haven't gotten a chance to watch it.

Wayy too much NASCAR on TV these days but they get the sponsors so...

I caught it on my DVR. Had to go to lo-fi because I don't get classic in HD. It was near the end after they had gone through all the video of the olympic class boats, just after the Tornado's and coming back from an ad. Really not the most exciting show. Gary Jobson narrates kind of like Warren Miller except there are no funny scenes of people falling of the chairlifts.

There was about a 3 minute segment with an introduction to the West River Sailing Club then an interview with Eric Witte followed by some scenes of him launcing his boat. There was a couple of seconds of Kris and crew sailing and a couple of Ed Mills to demonstrate the boat could be sailed one-up.

At no time did I catch or see them using the words
