Alinghi 5 masted again, gets ready for maiden sail

Alinghi 5, Alinghi's brand new catamaran, was masted once again on Sunday afternoon in view of her maiden sail sometime during the week. In addition to this milestone in Alinghi's quest to defend the America's Cup another equally important event will take place during this week. On Tuesday morning, Justice Kornreich will hear the oral arguments of both sides on the ongoing legal dispute and might take a decisive decision. We will obviously update on any information, as soon as we receive it.
