Well this says it all... Prada flew around the course and Artemis kind of flailed... The start was good and Artemis jumped out front but they seemed to have trouble maintaining the foiling angle and seemed to not be able to maintain a straight course. Also they sailed out in the main channel with a stronger current while Prada sailed in towards shore with a lesser current. Of course Artemis doesn't have the experience of sailing their cat, but lets hope they are able to do better next time. Also Prada didn't sail a great race, they had good boat speed but the also had trouble jibbing and turning on the foil. New Zealand will crush them if they don't do a better job.
