Sail NZ!

I dedicate this post to my dad who introduced me to America's Cup a few years back!

Getting the pass....









America's Cup challenger (mid-nineties)...










Doing 12knots ... in around 12knots of wind...










Taking the helm :) :)












Sailing under Auckland bridge (there was literally nothing left above the mast)










Grinding! (much harder than it seems on TV!)













Sailing back into Auckland bay










A truly unforgettably experience and a great way to spend the last last day in NZ!

Laterz :)
