In a belated media release issued nine days after images were first appeared of their AC72 on foils, by photographer Graeme Swan, Emirates Team NZ have conceded their AC72 'can foil sailing downwind in a moderate breeze.' Those photos were published in Sail-World last Monday, with a further set published on Thursday, and again on Friday morning.
