DISAPPOINTMENT...

DISAPPOINTMENT AT CNEV AND DESAFÍO ESPAÑOL OVER NEGATIVE AMERICA’S CUP VERDICT

THE 33 EDITION, PENDING AGREEMENT BETWEEN BMW ORACLE RACING TEAM AND ALINGHI

Valencia, 2 April 2009.- Club Náutico Español de Vela (CNEV) and Desafío Español have received the news of the New York Court’s decision with disappointment.

The court’s decision confirms Golden Gate Yacht Club as the Challenger of Record, to the detriment of the Spanish club.

Confirmation is now awaited on statements made by the BMW Oracle Racing Team indicating the possibility of a conventional America’s Cup with multiple teams, reaching an agreement with current defender Alinghi. - http://www.clubnauticoev.com/
