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

[Fiji Bitter]

So, last time Dalton was hidden away in a boat with no signal to receive the desired CoR.

Did we miss that part? Or has it changed how CoR is determined?

That is not how it worked!

The challenge is between yachtclubs, as stipulated in de Deed of Gift, and usually the respective Commodores will be ready to do the deed.

Dalton's or rather ETNZ's influence depends on their contract with the RNZYS.

We will hear soon who the Challenger is, and later what the agreed conditions will be.

Meanwhile we will speculate and spread plenty false info here on SA.

When do you think the RNZYS/ETNZ will reveal the new Challenger of Record?

In Bermuda Grant Dalton/Matteo de Nora did it at the Press Conference?

Our American friends in this forum seem very silent, you would of  though they would be congratulating us.

No problem here, beautifully run cup & well earned victory, savor it well, been up front from early days with support for LR but slowly & surely the superior design came to the fore. (hope it wasn't wrong to lift a glass of the EW in a toast)

And I would say to those idiots constantly bagging on the boats & format, it's not rose colored shades they look to the past with, it's a goddamn welding hood.

If anyone doubts what this means to NZ, we are now over an hour of coverage taken over the national news broadcast. Clearly nothing else has happened on the planet today, and if it has, we dont give a fuck.

Dunno - depends who & how fast they want to announce it.... I'm picking at the presser - need to take advantage of the interest.....
