Measurement Committee finds that this first claim (1) is unfounded as there is no evidence of any rules breach.

The Measurement Committee determines that the action of loading and unloading the headsail winch is in compliance with AC75 Class Rule 12.11(c) and therefore this claim (2) is unfounded.

In Napoli???? I doubt it! :)  
 

Napoli is f’ing brilliant, although my favorite spots are within a few miles by train or hydrofoil on the Amalfi Coast and Capri, where the food dialect varies slightly but is still just stunning. Have you ever seen fresh Limoncello Sorrento? My head is hanging..

No we don’t want to put cameras in the boat to show you, (the MC) just ask our jib trimmers, I promise they will tell you the truth... 

At the end of the day what’s done is done, and on to the final for Prada

Ahahahah I it was a Luna Rossa related comment. Unlike our friends on Stuff, the NZH were not biased against us.

Good news is it's only going to get better for you!  The NZ Herald has a vendetta for Dalton so expect more glowing coverage in the coming weeks.

I didn't know about this happy relationship. Why?

Someone who was local back then will probably correct me, but I believe the origins date back to SF and the NZ Herald's focus on Dalton's relationship with his PA.  It got pretty nasty with suggestions of him cheating on his wife etc (not true) and Dalton responded in his typical manner which was to pretty much blackball the publication and cut-off all access.  Fast forward to this cycle and NZH doggedly tried to turn the M&C saga into something it wasn't - there were rumors that the PR firm hired by M&C were somehow influencing the coverage, but I honestly think that the Herald and Dalton hate each enough that no greasing of the palms was necessary.

I myself don’t have a great deal of respect for the Herald anymore
