Extreme Sailing Series™ 2016, Act 2, Qingdao, China:
UPDATE: Extreme Sailing Series: "Swiss team Alinghi notched up their first win of the 2016 Extreme Sailing Series™ in a breathtaking final day of racing in Qingdao. Alinghi went into the finale of Act 2 with the narrowest of leads over rivals and Act 1 winners Oman Air, and all to play for as the fleet took to the stadium race course in 8-10 knots of wind, enough for the GC32 catamarans to ‘fly’ on their hydrofoils."
