    AC36: The Match (6-15th March. Reserve days to the 21st)

    I fear not. They will be lucky to get any racing in today as the wind is very light now and with cloud cover may not rise much in the afternoon.

    AC36: The Match (6-15th March. Reserve days to the 21st)

    I can see all the courses from where I am and there is very little wind in the harbour. 3kn max.  Much less than yesterday.  The only hope is for the seabreeze to come in the afternoon but even Predictwind is not promising much I'm afraid.

    Delay or award Prada Cup

    Why do they have to delay the Prada Cup?  The organisers have until the 24th to get it finished.  What is wrong with running the event under Level 2?  Surely it doesn't effect the competitors - with only a numbers restriction on the event center.  Delays might be even be advantageous to Ineos...

    Sail World: How do non-sailors regard the America"s Cup?

    I know that Goggle Box concept and is produced by a UK Kiwi!  Doing his bit for our PR.

    Sailing home at full speed up the harbour. Most impressive.

    Unloaded. It would be very interesting to know how much loaded flex deformation there is and how they limit, control and allow this to occur.

    Team NYYC

    Never saw the Hummingbird Wing flapping or the reverse camber myself despite  constantly looking for it and reviewing the footage. Nice idea and seemed a sound concept.  Perhaps was too subtle to see. Maybe I missed the above segment!

    Really - who cares about Rita B1.  Anyway she came in on a car shipment Saturday and photographed on Bledisloe Wharf, Sunday morning sitting in the rain.

    It was my impression too that Te Kahu was much faster. The size difference seems to accentuate the speed and maneuverability though.

    They are sitting off North Head in very little wind with main up only.

    Where is the dog - and a pity there is not a seagull in sight!

    Stars and Stripes Team USA is gone

    Of course you note that the hull is upside down! I'm sure if inverted one of them, that they would look very similar if not identical in shape as far as can be seen under the wrap.

    Corona Virus

    Surgical masks are fine if everybody wears them. If anyone is ill - it contains most of the velocity within the mask as stated before. It will not present enough of a barrier if the sneeze or cough is in the open - within the 2m zone.

    I was at a chemist when their very last N95 facemask was sold. $15.  To be used once for no more than 3hrs. No more available. Unobtainable in NZ.

    Foil Arms

    I would imagine that TNZ would not trust that process or unintended consequences of farming it out and would rather control the outcome using the defender advantage while still maintaining the appearance of a degree of fairness with the other teams.
