America's cup

Jeremy recently reminded me that the America's cup challenge is getting closer, six months to go.
The contender BMW Oracle Racing it appears just had a minor victory in court, it seems that the Swiss defenders had been caught colluding to create secret rule changes around the boat design, and hid them from the contender.

GGYC Statement:
New York, NY -- We are pleased that the Court will provide clarity on the rules before we complete our challenging vessel for America’s Cup 33.
The Court reserved her decision whether an engine and moveable ballast can be used. Justice Kornreich understood that we need to know the rules before we can complete our challenging vessel and then submit our Custom House Registry (CHR).
The Defender was compelled to turn over to the Court the secret agreement with International Sailing Federation (ISAF).
On questioning from the Court, Société Nautique de Genève (SNG) agreed to return to mediation, a process we have supported throughout our challenge.
We look forward to Justice Kornreich’s decision in the next few weeks, and to racing for the America’s Cup in February 2010.
