Sail Through Newport Harbor

Over the past couple of month, between watching the Newport to Bermuda start and the AC45s racing for the America's Cup, I've been visiting Newport Harbor an awful lot, both by land and sea.

I didn't get quite as close as the practice day I attended, but it was still a great time and a terrific event to watch and have in town. I can't wait until the final event in San Francisco, I guess we'll all just have...
