With the lack of Mutual Consent in the current edition of the America's Cup between Alinghi and BMW Oracle Racing, there are no rules regarding espionage activities between teams, or indeed what the public can see.

Sail-World is happy to run legally obtained images of either BMW Oracle Racing or Alinghi. Please send all material to nzeditor(at)sail-world.com or email us with a website URL. Please also let us know whether or not you are happy to be identified as the photographer. We will also include a link to your website if you wish.

Our thanks for Darrall Slater for getting out on the water and providing these images of BOR90 sailing off San Diego. Windspeed was reported as about 6-7kts and the top boatspeed measured at 18kts on GPS - BOR90's crew were reported to be taking it easy with the foil not deployed.
