Challenger of Record, Artemis Racing (SWE), got foiling after a few adjustments early in the day - turning in a very convincing performance for her first outing on San Francisco Bay. There were a few smiling faces, according to team photographer Sander van der Borch who provided this gallery.

The first day foiling effort is great news for the team and has put a new dimension on the regatta.
