it's fun watching how both of them were over early...you can't pull the trigger with 4 seconds to go like you can with a monodull.

I was kind of smiling at them leaning back and trying to hike out. how much of a difference could that make on a boat that size? Guess, it could just be instinct

check out some of the software they're developing for live "control room" umpiring of the racing action. Mid-way in the video you can see Oracle-white receive a penalty for sailing outside the racing perimeter.
