THE AMERICA'S CUP

First America's Cup 2013 Scores

2012 America's Cup Final Scores

The King Orange results had little change to the last report. One change was Gil Morris flew and maxed out in difficult conditions and so got 25 points to move into 4th in F1C.  Jean Pailet's win in F1H moved him out of a tie for second  with me into a tie for first but stays in second  by way of tie breaker rule so the result is Jean does not share 2nd with me. Similar situation with Bob Hanford winning F1J to tie for first but the tie breaker goes to Faust Parker. (note: only first place ties are broken)

A charming story-- Blake Jensen the 2011 F1G AmCup winner got the KO results and so knew Tiffany O'Dell had secured the 2012 win. She had come close over the last several years. Blake used his mill to engrave Tiffany's name on the AmCup F1G perpetual trophy plate was was placed under the Christmas tree on New Year's Day to Tiffany's great surprise.

Congratulations to the 2012 AmCup winners!
