AC35 Match: Day 5 – Spithill remains on OTUSA's helm; Slingsby tactician

HAMILTON, BER – The crew lists for today's Day 5, Races 9 and (if necessary) 10, have been issued by the respective teams through ACEA, and the set up for both is unchanged from past days. Jimmy Spithill is again on the helm for OTUSA with Tom Slingsby as tactician, as your Ed., AC veteran Paul Cayard, and a number of others predicted last evening. A change, we said, would be "suicide." Cayard used the same word in his email report late last night. As in past days OTUSA will swap two of their grinders for a second race, and ETNZ will replace their forward "cyclor" if Race 10 happens.
