    PRESS RELEASE OKI 24-Hour – NZ’s Toughest Dinghy Race next Weekend Auckland (March 3, 2015): The North Shore’s beloved OKI 24-Hour Race begins this Saturday 7 March at 2pm. Olympic-hopefuls and local heroes young and old will be sailing through the night in this iconic event with past winners including Dean Barker, Ray Davies and Peter Blake. “The OKI 24-hr sailing event is New Zealand’s toughest dinghy race and we have teams from all over the country as well as international sailors competing,” says Murrays Bay Sailing Club Commodore, Scott Leith. Andy Maloney and Nick Heiner (Laser World Champ) and Blair Tuke (49er World & Olympic Champion) are heading the entry list for the race with stiff competition expected from the large contingent of local male and female crews. The OKI 24-Hour Race is a competition for laser sailors held on Lake Pupuke and run by Murrays Bay Sailing Club, a club with a rich history of sailors recognised through Round the World races, national championships, America’s Cup regattas and the Olympics. “Last year’s event was held in stunning sailing conditions with over 90 teams spread across the OKI 24-Hour and OKI 6 hour race for Optimists,” says Leith. “The start of the race is quite unique and really exciting with the sailors in a Le Mans-style mad dash down the hill and launching themselves into the boats.” Auckland Wellington Christchurch 8 Antares Place Level 30 480B Moorhouse Avenue Rosedale 0632 Grand Plimmer Tower 8011 2-6 Gilmer Terrace 0611 (09) 477 0500 (03) 366 0876 (04) 569 2940 www.oki.co.nz There’s a major prize of $2,000 available for the sailor/s who do the most laps in the 24-hour timeframe.

We follow their progress on their journey as Defenders in the 36 th America’s Cup campaign in March 2021. Emirates Team New Zealand June 28 , 2019. SOURCE: Newsroom - Suzanne McFadden It’s exactly two years since Emirates Team New Zealand won the America’s Cup in Bermuda, and a lot of water has flowed under Te Wero Brid ge, in Auckland’s Viaduct, since then . A radical foiling monohull has been conceived, and is now coming to life in boatyards around the world. Battles over bases have been lost, and won. Teams have come, teams have gone. But if you’ve lost touch with the goings -on of the 36th America’s Cup, we've called on the assis- tance of Team NZ veteran Kevin Shoebridge, to help remedy that; so you can now sound up to speed with your yachting mates at the water cooler. SportsRoom presents The 2021 America’s Cup chea t sheet: two years gone, less than two to go. THE DEFENDER Team NZ are running like a “well -oiled machine”, says Shoebridge, the team's COO. But that’s what you’d expect from an outfit whose genesis goes back beyond 1995, and who hit the ground running fro m the mo- ment they came home with the Auld Mug.

    maxon motor Australia Pty Ltd Unit 1, 12 -14 Beaumont Rd. Mount Kuring -Gai NSW 2080 Tel. +61 2 9457 7477 [email protected] www.maxongroup.net.au August 21, 2019 The AC75 is one of the most futuristic sailing boats in history and could be the fastest monohull ever by the time America’s Cup racing wraps up in 2021. Its extreme design is pushing the engineers and designers to the limits of current technology, but the 3 6th America’s Cup is not just a technology race. The AC75 will be challenging and demanding to sail, with decisive race manoeuvres difficult to execute, making the demand on the sailors greater than ever before. To achieve the maximum performance, an America’s Cup sailor needs to be among the best. It’s no coincidence then that collectively, America’s Cup teams won 11 medals in the last 3 months. World races such as the European Championships, the World Cup Series and iconic Olympic regattas like the Trofeo Princesa Sofia. One of Challenger of Record’s k ey sailors Francesco “Checco” Bruni won the Moth European Champion- ship in Portugal at the end of May, with new team member Ruggero Tita, earning the bronze medal in the Nacras during last week’s World Cup Series Final in Marseille. Giles Scott, INEOS Te am UK tactician and Britain's brightest Olympic sailing hope, is the 2019 Finn Euro- pean Champion and also won the Silver at Trofeo Princesa Sofia in Palma di Mallorca in April.
