America's Cup - Video from the Great Sound - May 22

Latest video coverage Bermuda's Great Sound as the teams in fresher breezes.

Sail-World's Richard Gladwell arrived in Bermuda on the night of May 23. Tomorrow May 24, is a national holiday - Bermuda Day - oddly enough, we hope to start coverage of the 35th America's Cup tomorrow, with there being 1 day and 19 hours left until the first race - according to Cup Countdown at Immigration in Bermuda.

The media have started arriving, and getting a good going over including personal interviews for each by Immigration (they seemed very concerned that we weren't intending to leave - or stay a little bit longer than the Cup, for some reason.)

These videos are shot and produced by Jason Smith, who apparently lives on a bit of shoestring, and has put in hours every day to keep fans up to date with the latest from Bermuda. Multiply by a factor of four the duration of each of these videos, and you have an idea of the amount of time involved for Jason to bring you these every day. It's a big commitment.
