35th America's Cup

put it on

The OCHO

... dodgeball, anyone?

They have 2 channels on Direct TV so we will see. I doubt NBCS will actually film the events. They would just pick up the feed and broadcast.

The only thing that shows up is the Tuesday eve show.

I can't find the AC app. are they using it this year?

I have the app on my phone but it doesn't download any data. Basically a dead app.

maybe you can hack it so we can stream the ACWS from that app?

Whenever I have that 'not so fresh' feeling, I pour a little Fresca on a pantie liner and then strap it on. It gives me that little extra lift I need to make it through all my house cleaning and doing the laundry, and I have a spring in my step too.

I just Tweeted Todd Harris of NBC (my first Tweet!) and he said

Sadly NO, I'm on #tourdefrance2015 duty. Not sure about coverage maybe a delayed high light show but NO live. Bummer

Please write to NBC and ask for AC coverage. It may not get done for Portsmouth but maybe they will show Gothenburg in August if enough people gripe about it.

Sadly a waste of time. Here is where you will get some traction.

It's dead. It does have the data for the virtual eye for all the LV races and the Cup races, as well as the results, schedule (34th AC), and teams, etc.

I will provide the apk + data if any body wants it to side load and play with it.

sigh...so an American Yacht Club is defending the cup but we won't be able to watch the pre-series here in 'merica?

I bet they'll open up a youtube channel like they've done previously.

Currently the solutions I see possible:

Get access to Sky Sport or BT Sport account and password and stealth a UK proxy . . .
or
use a livestream (i.e.- livestream365.com) and select a eurosport channel and view it there (if someone hosts it).

I've been watching the last 16 stages of the Tour de France from my cell phone while I'm away from the office using the livestream and it has worked flawlessly.

Found another solution:
Delta has award seats for 60,000 points and fee of $205. Get's you there Friday morning. Not a bad deal at all. <img src="<>/smile.gif" alt="smile" title="smile" height="15" width="15" />

on another forum they were saying the new ac app will be out soon for like $8 or something, and there will be a live stream on it. So some people could watch it on an iphone or pad.
is there a way to use an ios app on a mac laptop?

what a change from the first acws where Mr. Ellison was apparently hemorrhaging money to get the show going. Even the on board feeds were uploaded. Those were cool.

yes, they were. Even when they had to stop some of them for

colorful language

Never say never, but apparently the odds of the ACWS returning to Newport are nearly nonexistent. Big time bummer...

Bottom line, the races will be on somewhere at some point. Go sailing and have fun and forget about this.

I'm flying from JFK to Tel Aviv tonight, might pass right over England on the way there, maybe I'll get a peek! Oh, and they rent catamarans right across the street from our hotel, I might get out on a cat... and Pretend I'm foiling at 30 knots!

I am the second downloader (must be behind Jake). who knew?

I wonder what the

in-app purchases

are? SWAG?

Here's a nice schedule. Times are London time so adjust accordingly.

Chinese in talks to mount America’s Cup challenge

Ouch!

Not swag. I believe it's 8 dollars per event to watch.

Genius then removes his helmet... Wow...

Weird timing. I literally transported a head injury today (Club 420 Nationals)...

Watching the

parade of sails

going on now.
from a rather crappy live cam

well, that kinda sucks... but they gotta pay the bills somehow.

Hilarious. Jimmy receiving the

one design kingpost

award.

I hope their app does not fail. It's one thing to watch it free but it's something else when you pay for it.
