Ainslie's been doing a great job, if it's him that's been calling the tactics. Seems he's got them going to the correct side of the course most of the time, certainly upwind leg 3 yesterday! Either that or they just got very lucky with a left shift. ENTZ went right, to get out of the flood behind Alcatraz, Oracle went left, and closed the gap when they came back together....not ahead, but closer. I still think ENTZ blew it when they tacked under Oracle. What were they thinking??

They just watched the left side pay off for Oracle, they should have crossed and gone left! Or at least got to the left of Oracle far enough for a one-tack back on the layline to the mark. Instead, they made 3 tacks, all of them slowwww and ended up 200 yards behind!
