Reader’s view about Cahn’s order
It seems to me that the Judge’s ruling can be interpreted to give the following options:
1) Race in Valencia. But to comply with the AC deed, this must be by no later than the end of October
2) Race by March. But to comply with the AC deed, this must occur in the southern hemisphere.
Alinghi can take their pick of one or the other but not both to race in Valencia and by as late as March 2009.
…
I think this is true. Although several BOR fans are crying out loud, JC has give us a “Salomonian decision”: ‘If you guys really want to race , in Valencia and end with this litigation asap, you have your choice to close this in October..’ (Date BOR was expecting)
The only thing is why JC thinks going South reduce Alinghi´s advantage gained with new time frame…
I can´t wait to see those 90×90 multis match racing… anywhere but asap!
I just heard that my great sailing friend and former CEO of Hobiecat Europe has passed. May The endless oceans…
