racing is monday, wednesday, and (if required) Friday.

New extended video of USA sailing in very light air from today. NOTE: The friction reduction system slots are GONE! That whole thing was a fake!

Expect the protest flags to go up right at the 5 minute signal tomorrow on each boat. I believe Alinghi is going to protest that USA is not a "sloop" with the wing. I believe BMWO is going to protest Alinghi for their sails not be constructed in country.

Also note that SNG did NOT remove the recommended wind limits from the NOR as directed by the International Jury. They have also continued to fiddle with the rules of the match apparently - we're expecting more changes and trouble tomorrow.
