The water surface area of USA has changed. Either a type of paint or film to reduce skin fiction with the water. Below is the link of what USA used in Perth. If USA is using something like this it will be way more advanced due to NASA's advancement in technology since Perth: http://www.nasa.gov/centers/langley/news/factsheets/Riblets.html 2. Looks like they are relocating the LWL marks as the silver ones are gone & there is a break in the paint or film. How USA floats in the Med would be different & they have put the mast step back to it's old spot or even further back which would change how USA floats for LWL. Also I would expect they have sensors located at these points. Notice the inspection hatch on the center hull under the LE. 3. At the LWL points the rest of the water build up & run off at this point could be that they are not finished with the LWL marks & have not faired the sensor band. I doubt that USA has any outlets that release a skin friction solution that is chemical as it's against USA law. 1. The water surface area of USA has changed. Either a type of paint or film
