With racing just under a week away, things are gearing up in Spain. When the Swiss team announced that Valencia would be the locale for defending the America's Cup in 2007 the city sprang into action to develop a world class facility to host the event. Billed as the greatest sailing stadium in the world, Port America's Cup (I'm still not sold on the name) boasts three marinas, 12 team bases, an International Broadcast Center, a Media Center, along with the AC Park, and a landmark building. Add in public entertainment areas, restaurants, bars, café, exhibitions and Marina offering 636 berths and you've got a a pretty rocking party. Lets hope we can get ample coverage from my side of the pond.
