I've got a number of YouTube channel recommendations if you weren't aware of them already (https://willj.net/posts/youtube-sailing-channel-recommendations/ https://willj.net/posts/youtube-sailing-channel-recommendati...). A large number of those channels have done a lot of off-shore sailing, and many have done multiple ocean crossings.

you can add the sailing frenchman -- great mix of caribean sailing, singlehanded racing, pretty down to earth: https://www.youtube.com/@TheSailingFrenchman https://www.youtube.com/@TheSailingFrenchman

Thank you, I will have a look :) This YT channel is gem I found: https://www.youtube.com/@SailingTipsCa https://www.youtube.com/@SailingTipsCa Doesn't post a lot, not very high production quality but very high quality information.

Are there any channels that deal specifically with the America's Cup and learning about it and the boats? TIA

  No, these are all cruisers rather than racers. There's a mix of sailing and lifestyle, but then for a lot of them it's hard to just film the sailing because there's only so much sailing you can actually do when you live on your boat.

  Mozzy is by far the best and most detailed channel out there for the AC, 10/10 recommend. Has the systems understanding, ability (and confidence) to make predictions, while keeping the video's at a length that is still digestible. Also has a nice speaking voice which brings a level of classiness to it. https://www.youtube.com/@mozzysails https://www.youtube.com/@mozzysails

One sailor that I enjoy watching is Patrick Laine[1]. The back catalog has a lot of coastal single-handing (coast of France mostly). Then he started circling the Atlantic. [1] http://www.youtube.com/@patricklaine6958 http://www.youtube.com/@patricklaine6958 Edit: official channel URL
