On a slightly different tack...

Did the Canadians get the new boat yet, or are they still using the old Japan one?

I'm guessing there's a spare boat out there by now?

i'd like to know too!

Would you have included, NZL on that 'consistency' list 18 months ago?

Yes, I would have given the talent the Team has. It just has taken Burling & Co a little bit of time to figure it out. We all knew they would at some Point. They are too good not to be a contender.

What is the deal with USA's standing points? I noticed too that they barely climbed the season standings board in points, despite winning in St Tropez. This timestamp touches on it.

The call is for 12-15 knots tomorrow from the SW, should be great.

3 races tomorrow are scheduled, plus the Final.
