It was Valentine's Day in Auckland and there certainly weren't any expressions of love between the teams - you'd think the Italian's would be a little more fore-giving on this day as they invented it! One legendary Olympic coach, Jim Saltonstall, was heard on many occassion to explain that the sa...

Update on the comings and goings in Auckland. The two tribes waged verbal attacks due to the postponement of Wednesday's planned racing because of the Government's COVID Level 3 Alert. If you thought it was bad on the water..the Italian's honour was questioned - fighting talk from Tina Symmans, C...

If Sir Ben could turn back time with 4 races down…But with racing back, it's Day Three of the Prada Cup Final and evenly matched against the Italian's, the Brits have a very limited period to turn things around or they're going home. Footage © America's Cup - Challenger of Record

Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli - The Terminator. INEOS Team UK don't know how to destroy this Italian machine which at every occasion, bar one, has dominated every skirmish! Day 4 was the chance for the flying leviathan to put out the lights and hopes of the British challenge once and for all.. Footage...

Well the hypothesising is over - the 36th America's Cup starts tomorrow. Emirates Team New Zealand , the Defender, versus Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli, the Challenger.

Second Day of the 36th America's Cup. The start is essential to get right and the coach's mantra hammers home the simple mantra.. 80% of the race is decided at the start. Get it wrong and it's catch up with little chance of getting in front. Get it right and control the race! Light breeze and all...

Third day and it looks like history is repeating itself on the water. Neck and neck, low riding for one foiling for the other, good and bad start - which team is going to break the deadlock? Plus it's Rock The Dock and specially recorded performance of Sailing by Rod Stewart - we did say that his...

Racing abandoned on Day 4 with little wind for the leviathans to come out and play - but it was a beautiful Sunday in Auckland so the fans did instead! Footage © America's Cup - Challenger of Record

Deliverance - being set free! Up on your foils is essential - basically it's like being in a Formula One missile versus the school run car. The dueling teams obviously have experts but ETNZ have sailors that have lived on foils for most of their careers and know how to get their flying machines o...

High hopes for every Kiwi on the planet - four years of planning, training and implementing their race strategy to successfully defend the America's Cup. Talk is that Great Britain will be the next official Challenger for the 37th, press releases about prize giving and fireworks over the harbour....

Proud - that's what five million New Zealanders must feel now! This is the fourth time the Kiwi's have won the America's Cup - 1995, 2000, 2017 and now 2021. Even a global pandemic didn't stop Auckland hosting this festival of the most expensive boats racing. Congratulations to the people of New ...
