SI #754 — Watch Party, Day 3 of the LV Cup Semi-finals. GBR and ITA both up 4-0

SAILING ILLUSTRATED #754 (Mon 16 Sep 2024) — Watch Party for Day 3 of the Louis Vuitton Cup Semi-finals from Barcelona. The LV Cup is the Challenger Selection Series for the 37th America's Cup. FRA was eliminated in the Round Robin stage, leaving GBR v. SUI in one Semi-final and ITA vs. USA in the other. After Days 1 & 2 both GBR and ITA are up 2-0. It's first to win five, so it could all be over today (Monday), with it looking almost certain that GBR and ITA will advance to the LVC Finals on 26 Sep — first-to-win seven matches. Host Tom Ehman (USA) goes live with these Watch Parties every race day at 0500 Pacific / 0800 Eastern and 1200 UTC on Facebook (fb.com/sailingillustratedblog) and the Sailing Illustrated TV YouTube channel, or watch a replay on-demand later.
