'Stoked'

Over on Sail-World.com, there's a nice piece about an evening at the Royal Prince Alfred Yacht Club in Sydney with two of the Australian legends from this America's Cup - BMW ORACLE Racing skipper James Spithill and Alinghi design guru Grant Simmer.

The focus of the story is about how 'stoked' both men were about the opportunity to push the design envelope in this last AC. It's a nice read; be sure to take a look.
