Re: Americas Cup - OFFICIAL match thread

The modifications that were obvious when ETNZ were back on the water today we're aerodynamic and hydrodynamic features. The wing had new foils on the wing joints and a foil on the underside of where the wing is attached. The area of these foils wouldn't amount to the same area as the jib, per chance?
