What ACTV Didn’t Show Us in Chicago Race 4

Last week I shared my video analysis of highlights from Race 4, based on what we could see in the ACTV footage. What we could NOT see in that footage was that Artemis Racing protested Groupama Team France at the course boundary and Team France was penalized.

What the Umpires Saw

The umpires’ system showed SWE in the five boat length zone at the boundary, with right to sail their proper course. The boundary is the purple line; the zone is light gray. Artemis protested, and France was penalized.
