Weather or Not Nov 29, 08:02
The guys began sailing in AKL this week, witness the nice story on our main team website today about USA 71 sailing off the Auckland cityfront yesterday in beautiful, breezy conditions.
By contrast, the sailing conditions in VLC are again this week, and typical for the winter months, very light....
Meanwhile in Malaysia, it is typically hot and humid on the opening day of the Monsoon Cup, the sixth stop on the World Match Racing Tour of which BMW is the official car (both the Monsoon Cup and the Tour). BMW ORACLE Racing is not was able to have a team in Malaysia this week given that both Dicko and Gavin had teams racing in the NZ Match Racing Championships in Auckland last week, the start-up of training with 71 in AKL this week, and the team Sten Mohr is taking to Brazil for the WMRT event there next week. Some photos and commentary on the Monsoon Cup will appear from time to time over on the Challenger Commission Blog and on the Monsoon Cup website.
