Australia II officials accuse the New York Yacht Club of harassment after a Dutch engineer refused to sign a false affidavit claiming Lexcen did not design Australia II. Van Oossanen said NYYC tried to induce him to sign and insisted Lexcen was the sole designer. The dispute shadows preparations for the best of seven Americas Cup series with Defender and Courageous key in recent wins and looming Defender selection.
