This week on America's Cup Discovered Cup veteran and America's Cup World Series commentator Gary Jobson take us on a journey through the oldest trophy in sport. Sailing on an multihull or monohull has always been about speed. The vision of the 34th America's Cup in 2013 has a new look; not only with the catamarans, but also with the younger, fitter and stronger sailors. No matter the boat, no matter the athletes onboard; the passion to excel has endured the decades.
