Golden Gate Will Challenge for the America's Cup with Trimaran

August 10, 2009

Statement from Tom Ehman, Spokesperson Golden Gate Yacht Club:

"We are very satisfied with today's court session and the discussion around the Custom House Registry.

We're pleased to publicly confirm that the BOR 90 -- which will continue to undergo modifications -- is the boat that will compete for the 33rd America's Cup in 2010.

It's now clear that we can continue to modify the boat after submitting the CHR. Société Nautique de Genève asserted, once again, that they would not use the rules to disqualify our boat.

We look forward to the Judge's decision.
