America's Cup Superyacht Regatta – Race Day One Highlights

We've got three days of some pretty spectacular super yacht racing. 20 yachts including of course six J-class yachts going off together first. It should be something new, something Bermuda hasn't seen. You combine it with an Americas Cup of course and it's pretty special. Sail these boats, these heirlooms as well as we can and to stay out of trouble. It's just amazing, it's my first J-class regatta and I'm really excited to be here, for the Americas Cup, see some of that going on and racing in what's now the biggest fleet of J's they've had for probably forever I guess. And yeah it's really exciting to be part of it and yeah they're cool boats, they're great boats to sail on and yeah it's really quite exciting to be here. Fantastic to see these boats ripping around at almost 50 knots on the cup course but this is something equally special as well and the engineering and the development that's going into these boats now is equally as impressive so it's something quite exciting to be part of. That's the purpose of sailing you know, sailing is a wide, super wide spectrum. Whatever the size, whatever the number of hulls, whatever the size of the race course, whatever the weather could be and I'm lucky enough to be able to helm a big boat like the Swaziana and that's very cool in fact. Well, just a little, it could have been a little better with a bit more wind but that's it.
