Master Class!
/Jimmy got the start and they never looked back. Maybe starting is the weakness in TNZ
Taking sides
/As inevitably happens the crew have their favorite Teams.. Each and every boat had support from Us. We know many of the guys on the team and for some it is hard to pick a single team to wave the flag for. Clearly Oracle is the number 1 choice, followed By TNZ and BAR

No Wind but Beautiful day
/We were all ready, course set and the boats were there...And as forecast the breeze swung to the SE and dropped under the 6 knot threshold with 30 minutes to go..But we had swimming and Snorkeling off the Bouncy castle, The Wally Temp replacement..

TNZ VS Artemis
/until the foul it was very close as you can see. 30-35 its right down our Starboard side.
Loius Vuitton TNZ narrowly avoids going down the Mine!
/Very close race with Artemis coming down to a port Starboard foul at the top mark..However as you can see it was not all plain sailing on TNZ. Windward Rudder out the water as they went past us.
