Videos from Land Rover BAR and Alex Thomson

Its a a good time of year to be an armchair sailor, when its cold and grey outside, to keep in the warm making shopping lists doing their sailing via the interweb thing.

First up there's the video above from Land Rover BAR showing lots of lovely clips of their America's Cup foiling cats zooming across the Solent. What fun!

Santa - how about a ride on one of those for Christmas?

Then there was a cool video of Alex Thomson waving the flag while neck and neck with Armel Le Cléac'h somewhere way down south in the Vendee Globe:


Oh la la!! C'est superb!!
