SAN FRANCISCO — The Australian SailGP team didn’t let an interruption by a wayward whale get in the way Sunday as they easily defended their overall title, claiming the winner-take-all, $1 million season finale race over Japan and the United States on San Francisco Bay.
In the first attempt at the finale, Australia had a short lead when the sonar on the race officials boat detected a whale heading for the race course. At the restart, Australia’s Tom Slingsby and his crew judged the fickle winds perfectly, lifting the 50-foot catamaran up on its foils and jumping out to what proved to be an insurmountable lead on the first leg down the 600-meter course.Caught on Video: Canadian Film Crew Assaulted, Robbed at Gun Point at San Francisco's Twin Peaks
