    Seems we are going great guns at the moment, getting our name out there.

    If we can just get to Europe or win a cup, then we could really escalate into something big.

    The Americas Cup i viewed by millions, and is a sport of massive wealth.

    It's a bizarre link to us, but one that certainly makes commercial sense, as well as adding to the appeal in Korea we have with Ji.
