SATURDAY RECAP AT LVACWS CHICAGO


Today’s Highlights

Up to 1000 boats were ringing the race area just off the city front. Tens of thousands of fans were lining iconic Navy Pier. Bars, restaurants and fan zones were heaving. The best sailors and fastest boats were ready to show what they could do. After phenomenal practice racing on Friday, with two capsizes, the wind took a while to co-operate. So while fans enjoyed a great day on Navy Pier, officials took the ‘substitute race’, which was sailed on Friday, and scored it as Race One of the Louis Vuitton America’s Cup World Series Chicago.

Sunday’s Forecast Partly sunny, cooler and less humid. Temperature: Low of 61F (16C) High of 70F (21C) Wind: NNE 13 – 19mph Stay tuned for updated forecasts in the morning.
