micheal_warren Posted April 19, 2007 Report Share Posted April 19, 2007 I thought they were holding it in Valencia, not the Sargasso Sea! i reckon, the wind currently in valencia is 5.4 knts, but they need at least 7 knts to race Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

micheal_warren Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 shocking start to team new zealand by losing to Mascalzone Latino! A bad day for new zealand sport. We lost to Australia in the rugby league and in the cricket and now losing our first race at the Louis Vuitton Cup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baron-pierreIV Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 So how long do these Louis Vitton Cup races go for? And it whittles down the large field to the one Challenger to ALinghi? Is that how it works out? So it looks like the Oracle entry and Luna Rossa are tied for now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
micheal_warren Posted April 21, 2007 Report Share Posted April 21, 2007 Another windless day at the americas cup. Thats 5 out of 6 days! The weather is for 10-12 knots today so a lot more promicing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

micheal_warren Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 A good win today for team new zealand against +39 challenge from Italy. The wind is still a major problem though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexjc Posted April 23, 2007 Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 At least the officials are piling them in to get through this exciting but very tight schedual. Have to admit the ETNZ loss was what was needed to wake NZ up to the fact that we are well and truly not invincible anymore, our first loss in a LV Cup match since the finals series with oneAustralia in 1995! Wake up New Zealand! This will be a real fight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
