It's been 27 years since the America's cup was held here in the waters off of Rhode Island. What better way to shed the past attorney driven campaigns and restore the luster to the cup by bringing it back home.

Rebecca Redshjk Hey I have great news. Did you know that if you have a computer you can start making money right now ? I started this job 3 weeks ago and i've gotten 2 checks for a total of $3150 and that is enough to comfortably replace my old jobs income, especially considering I only work about 10-13 hours a week from home. zgnvn

What if i promised to show you how to easily put $200 - $500 per day into your bank account, working from the comfort of your home. What if I also told you that what we teach has been proven over and over again to make serious money for anyone, regardless of skills, experience, age, or location?

      If Multi-Hulls are ruled out we may see such a contest again. Until then lets show support to the mono-hulls and get them back into the competition.

        Yachtspotter US Here we go again... Looks like San Fran may be out of the picture. Can Newport do what it takes to host the cup?

        Rigby Transmedia Yep, I was in Newport for two America's Cups. Covered them both as a journalist. It's time it went home again. It belongs in Newport, and that's saying something. I'm a West Australian and we were the ones who took it away in the first place. I say bring the tradition back and let the Cup go home. It's never been the same since 1983.

        Trixie Wadson Fans of wing sails, multihulls, and Newport check out the Little America's Cup in August at New York Yacht Club. http://web.me.com/twadson/Trixie_Wadson/C_Class_Cats_Newport.html

          Gregory Hanson If Ted Turner had allowed Dennis to sail for the NYYC, when he proved he was the better sailor, instead of forcing him to compete independently, the cup would never have been lost, and moved to the San Diago coast where conditions were inappropriate for yacht racing, requiring new yacht designs, and the degredation of ...the event. Ted Turner has too much pride for his own good and would rather see an historic event trashed than allow anyone else to get credit for their abilities that were better than his.

          Ann Marie Serrani-Wilkie I was a crew member on the Schooner Charlotte Ann during the 1983 race. It's a time in my life I will always remember. Great weather and beautiful watching the race from the bow of the spectacular Charlotte Ann.
