Stephen Barclay Ceo America's Cup Event Authority yesterday jokingly mentioned
whats next for the America's Cup Finals perhaps a whale ? We have had every other natural disturbance prolonging a Oracle Team USA comeback .
Well he got his wish and yesterday outside the course near Sausalito indeed we had a Whale surface .
Now being called Larry the Whale after none other than Larry Ellison himself owner Oracle Giant and Team USA its now believed the whale (Larry) was summonsed by Mr Ellison with use of his high tech warehouse of goods services and a Worldwide call out to all the Techies of the world that are as we speak filling the City for the Annual Oracle Open World .
San Francisco is getting crowded with America's Cup running late the Oracle Open World set to begin, the Rolex Big Boat series to start practice this wednesday coming . The bay and city are busting with travel dollars and cup fans .
Cup has become a windfall for all involved TV audiences You tube hits going viral .
Internationally 40 new TV positions including Russia the BBC has begun broadcasting Highlight show to over two hundred markets.
A whales tail has come round just as the wind has today but still a little light we are now waiting for at least 10 knts of wind instead of the five previously because we have learned the boats simply even as fast as they are make through the course on the 40 minute time frame set up per race . Iain Murray explained this morning .
If this Whales tail of a comeback continues today it will start cutting into the costs of the event . The Marine Permit will have to be extended big bucks , Support crews housing ,helicopters , rescue , fire ,police as well not no mention building rentals,tents power supplies and mass's of volunteers needed to run a super event like this Its like having the super bowl every day for 16 days that the record we set today officially now the longest America's Cup In History .
Larry the Whale has not been sited as of yet this morning a search is underway for the Whale using ACEM boats helicopters land based and Coast Guard . Lead by the Marine Mammal institutes here .
If he surfaces in the course the races will be stopped and we go on to tomorrow groundhog day 17 .
