Aleph keeps pushing

Posted on 27 July 2011

The Aleph team was the only one to train on Wednesday, with Team Korea and Energy Team taking maintenance days.

With the wind lighter than it's been for most of the past few weeks, the French team did some load testing ashore with the wing on the AC45, before taking to the water near noon.

Before they left the dock, we caught up with helmsman Alain Gautier, who said his crew still had, "A lot of things to learn. We've learned a lot in the four days, but we have to learn more and more... We will have about 12 days of training (before racing). It's not the same as the best teams, but it's enough I think..."
