Four Kiwis in New York Yacht Club's America's Cup team Four Kiwis have been named in the New York Yacht Club's team to challenge for the America's Cup. Former Emirates Team New Zealand skipper Dean Barker will helm the American Magic bid in Auckland in 2021 as well as country-men Sean Clarkson, Jim Turner and Joe Spooner. The 17-man initial roster announced today includes US Olympians Caleb Paine and Bora Gulari and Paul Goodison of Britain, an Olympic gold medalist and three-time world champion in the foiling Moth class. The roster includes three sailors who have won the America's Cup and eight who have sailed in the Olympics. The team members have done a combined 31 America's Cup campaigns. Nine of the 17 are Americans. "It's hard to not feel incredibly energized and motivated by what's in front of us," skipper and executive director Terry Hutchinson, a veteran of four America's Cup campaigns, told AP. Source Link |
