They were certainly the class of the field throughout the competition.

With the Cup in Switzerland, it will be interesting to see where the next Cup is contested. I would imagine they could choose anywhere from the Mediterranean to the North Sea, and that choice will determine how the formula is applied to design the next generation of yachts.

The official challenger will be Sna Francisco Yacht Club and Larry Ellison. They submitted the challenge on Sunday. So, it will be together with the Geneva Yacht Club that the rules for the next cup will drawn up.

As to where it will take place, the most likely playces today seem to be Marseille, Palma de Majorque and Cascais Portugal (right next to Estoril!!). Out of those three, I'm kinda hoping for Estoril...
