No sooner than the America’s Cup World Tour was packing up their tents than the MOD 70’s started a short sprint to New York City. They should arrive this morning, having left Newport yesterday evening. Sailing at 16 knots in 12 knots of wind, leaving no trace in the water. These boats are all identical, leaving the results to the ability of the crew.
The boats will leave New York on July 7, racing to Brest, France. After that they continue a circuit around the world.
The press office, which had been set up at Newport Shipyard could not have been more organized, open and welcoming.
