Photo Gilles Martin Raget – The Tri recovered from 500mts , and after even drop their jib, and started to point better with the same speed
VMG was key, final speed most of the time was the same, although USA had 4-5 knots advantage at times, but VMG was key for the Tri. The power of the Wing showed no flaw, the Cat struggled sometimes in keeping one hull up in 7knots, the winged Tri was A Machine.
