Meanwhile in San Diego...

Related PDF Documents- Transcript of the NY Court Hearing, 27 October 2009

There is no doubt there must be a lot of smiling faces in San Diego after the decisive win in the NY Supreme Court on Tuesday on the issue of next year's America's Cup venue. Yet, the America's Cup is not only the legal shenanigans we've been used to in the last 2 years. It is also supposed to represent the cutting edge of sailing technology. According to Russell Coutts' statement earlier today, "there are further technical developments in the pipeline" for BOR90 that make them "very excited about".

Our friend in San Diego, Goli, managed to get a sneak picture of what could be one of those "technical developments", in particular the long-rumored hard wing for BMW Oracle's challenging yacht, or is it some simple white table? Time will tell...

For all those, really interested in all the legal details of the 33rd America's Cup we post the transcript of Tuesday's hearing in front of Justice Kornreich.
