Why I chose Sailing Americas Cup?
  • I chose Sailing Americas Cup because I have
    been sailing all my life, but I have never known
    much about other sailing events that happen
    around the world.
  • Americas Cup will have a ton of information to
    research on and it will be a very interesting and
    exciting topic.
