Mladen, have you ever seen video of what a Coast Guard .50cal can do to a fishing boat? I don't know what armament Ellison's interceptor could carry, but I suspect the mounts would support something that could easily turn a racing yacht into toothpicks.

G> Well, Larry Ellison allegedly has MiG 25 which is an interceptor airplane
G> armed to blow other airplanes out of the sky. It doesn't have any weapon
G> system to sink a ship. He should purchase few F-16 and A-10 planes. 
G> Those can be used against ships.  Speaking of the race, allegedly those GPS 
G> navigation systems they use in the modern yachts are running SQL Server. 
G> Larry couldn't have won with a software like that.
