I actually saw the USA and NZ boats in practice on the Bay in June on the way to Alcatraz. They do look nice in the water, and they are hella fucking fast, but I am not the sailor in my family.
No matter what, though, it doesn't justify the "speedy water creatures" display in the Cal Academy of Sciences atrium that culminates in…the Americas Cup boats, and a pop-up gift shop with Americas Cup squid plushies.
