Another good day today for Katusha and Artemis Racing. Katusha continues to lead the fleet here in San Diego with scores of 2, 6, 2 and 35 points. Artemis Racing had a 1, 4, 6 for a total of 46 for the series and 4th place. TeamAqua had the same points as we did for […]
An excellent day on Katusha as we took the lead and Artemis strong in fourth. Four very tight races on San Diego Bay and with scores of 3, 5, 2, 1 Katusha had one of its best days ever. Good starts and great speed are the key for us so far. We are now in […]
Another excellent day for Artemis Racing and Katusha. Both teams sailed well at the front of the fleet today, battling with the winner of the day, ORACLE Racing who has 10 points. Katusha had scores of 4,3,4,3 to end the day in second place on 14 points and Artemis Racing is in third place with […]
San Diego, A very good day for both Artemis Racing and Katusha with four wins each out of five races. On Katusha we were happy with our results but I would not characterize our sailing as smooth. Yet, we got the job done. For our first three races of the day, we had the “Curmudgeons” […]
We just finished up two days of practice down here in San Diego. Beautiful, sunny but chilly both days with 10-17 knots of Northwesterly wind. The race course for this event is inside the Bay where it should be. The boats are berthed at the Broadway Street Pier. Looks like about 12 teams are here. […]
It was a fantastic day today on the Hauraki Gulf in the new AC45 prototype catamaran. Blue sky and 15 knots of wind from the Southwest made for a great training day for Artemis Racing. Following a strange incident on Monday whereby the hard wing sail was damaged, the Artemis team worked alongside the ACRM […]
Auckland February 23, 2011 Just a quick update from down here. The Artemis Racing team is based in Auckland this week for training and attendance in America’s Cup meetings. Auckland is approximately 450 miles north of Christchurch, the site of the large earthquake of February 22. No one on Artemis Racing was involved directly or […]
Auckland New Zealand, February 21, 2011 It was Mid December when I last wrote an update. No racing has taken place for Artemis since the RC 44 regatta in Miami but a lot has been going on with regard to our America’s Cup project. I was recently in Valencia for a couple of weeks working […]
Lisa Blackaller | January 07, 2011 | YouTube I just had to share this clip with old friends in the America’s Cup world. This video clips and interview were done with my dad prior to his untimely death in 1989. He would certainly be thrilled and amazed that, yes in fact, the America’s Cup IS […]
Some corrections. In my effort to get the report out quickly last night, I erred in my reporting of the seasons positions for both Artemis and Katusha. The good news is that I under reported. Artemis actually finished 2nd in the combined overall scoring for the RC44 2010 season to BMW Oracle and Katusha finished […]
