Ryan Bridge: Missing out on the America's Cup isn't the end of the world

Buongiorno! Italia is going to host the 38th America's Cup in summer 2027. The Auld Mug once again heads to European waters - the first time the Italians will play host. They've had the World Series but never the big one. It'll be Mt Vesuvius in the background, not Rangitoto. Pizza lining the bellies of fans, not fish and chips. Auckland has missed, which we already knew. Athens has missed out. Giorgia Meloni's excited. Luna Rossa, obviously pumped. But the question for you this morning: do you wake up feeling jealous? Was there a pit of disappointment in your stomach? Do we lambaste our messily, stingy government for not prioritising a sailing race? My feelings are, well it's nice they have somewhere to sail and good luck to them. But I don't feel FOMO. We were on the hook for tens of millions of dollars - Wayne hasn't got his bed tax, yet. Politically, it was the right call, too. Imagine with this announcement coming a week out from Budget Day the outcry from the unions and Opposition. You're spending how much on men sailing round the harbour while cutting women's pay? Can you just imagine it? Plus, when we debated all this a few months back, we didn't know at that point Dalton was quietly walking away contract negotiations with Peter Burling. So, we would have spent millions a race for a boat with an Aussie at the helm, not our beloved Burling. And that's fine. We've had one before in Glen Ashby, but there's no doubt the preference was for Burling to continue. Grant Dalton told me that at the time. But there's a bigger point here. When times are tough, when the kitty's running on low, you can't afford the nice to haves. For Team New Zealand, that was Burling. For us, it was the competition itself. And if you're worried Dalton has regrets about Auckland failing to get a look in, take a look at the press release for today's announcement. He say's Italians, not us Kiwis, are quote "the most passionate and engaged America's Cup audience in the world and the city is the best option for growing global audiences". It's summer in Europe. If you're sailing mad, might be time to look at some flight options for a mid-winter getaway. Some difficult Captain's calls have been made, but for us, and for them, it sounds like they were necessary ones and the necessary choices are always the right ones.

The Prime Minister has lived up to his talk of being a great negotiator, saying “thanks but no thanks” to Team New Zealand. Because a great negotiator is always prepared to walk away if the negotiations aren't going their way, and that's what the Government has done. Telling Grant Dalton and Team NZ that putting $75 million of taxpayer money into hosting the next America's Cup would be a nice-to-have, not a must-have. I think the Government has done the right thing and the wrong thing. It's done the wrong thing because no one can argue that the economic spinoff from hosting something like the America's Cup is huge. Everyone's talking about Barcelona getting truckloads out of hosting the event. Although, they did have the option of hosting it again but decided not to. So maybe the benefits are being talked up a bit. But either way, there are economic benefits that come from hosting something like the America's Cup and, because of that, the Government's done the wrong thing turning its back on it But my overriding feeling is that it's done the right thing because we just can't afford it. Whether we will ever be able to afford it, who knows? But it highlights how we really need to get our act together when it comes to attracting big events here. And we won't do that, unless we all stop competing with each other. When I say “we”, I'm talking about Christchurch and Wellington and Auckland and Dunedin. Everywhere. At the moment, all cities and towns compete with each other to get big events. In Christchurch, when the stadium is open, we'll be trying to get concerts away from Dunedin and get them happening here instead. At the moment, we have ChristchurchNZ in Christchurch, DunedinNZ in Dunedin, WellingtonNZ in Wellington, and Auckland Unlimited in Auckland, all doing the same thing —not to mention all the other agencies around the country— all fighting it out to get events to their areas. And I think this is crazy. Because what's happening is we have all these different agencies taking a very parochial view of the world. ChristchurchNZ, for example, only goes into bat for Christchurch - or Canterbury. When what all of these agencies should doing is working together on a joint approach. Not only because it would mean they weren't all chasing the same thing, it would also mean more money to spend on getting these events here. And it's not just money to get events here, it's money for facilities too. And the parochial ideas blinding our thinking on that. Perfect example being the stadium saga in Auckland and the council deciding last week to redevelop Eden Park instead of building something new on the waterfront. They're still wanting more than $100 million from the Government for Eden Park, when we already have stadiums coming out of our ears in New Zealand. There's Dunedin stadium - with a roof. The new Christchurch stadium - with a roof. The Cake Tin, in Wellington. And Eden Park. And the only reason money is being poured into Eden Park is parochialism. Just like Christchurch wanted a 30,000 seat stadium because of parochialism. And if the country keeps going like this, we'll never have the money to get big events here. We'll have the stadiums - but there'll be nothing happening inside them. Which is why we need to take the job of chasing these big events away from all these regional agencies and have one central agency deciding what events we're going to go for and where they're going to be held. Because what's good for Christchurch is good for Auckland. And what's good for Dunedin is good for Wellington. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

By Christopher Reive in Barcelona In the days before the America's Cup match in Barcelona, Team New Zealand starboard helmsman Peter Burling made it clear the team would take necessary risks to defend the Auld Mug. “When you get to the top level of any sport, you see people really getting punished for mistakes. In saying that, you can't be afraid to take risks either,” he said. “You don't want to come through it with a conservative mindset, that's for sure, and we definitely will not be doing that. But we can fully expect if one of us makes a mistake, the other one will punish them.” In the third race of the Cup match against Ineos Britannia this morning, an aggressive move in the pre-start to draw a penalty against the Brits set the Kiwi crew up for a 52s win to take a 3-0 lead in the first-to-seven series. It was the only race of the day, with light winds seeing race management bring a halt to the day's action, with race four postponed to tomorrow; initially scheduled as a reserve day. The two teams came into close quarters moments before the race proper began, to the point where their foils were overlapping. Both teams launched a protest with the umpires for the other not keeping clear. It was the Kiwis who were judged to be the fouled boat, with Ineos Britannia having to fall 75m behind Team NZ off the starting line. That allowed the defenders to choose their side of the course and dictate the race. “We tried it yesterday and they just got past us. It was a little bit uncomfortable with how close the boats got,” Burling said after the race “It'll be interesting to see. The umpires obviously ruled we were clear there, so great to get a penalty and control the race from there.” Emirates Team New Zealand extended their lead in the America's Cup match. Photo / Ricardo Pinto, America's Cup The pre-start battle was among the biggest areas of interest coming into the Cup match, but through the opening three races, it has been the Kiwis coming away better from the starting line. In the third race of the series, Team NZ were able to control the course and make life tough for the Brits with their match-racing tactics and making them sail in dirty air. A mid-race comment from Ineos Britannia port helmsman Dylan Fletcher summed up the situation for his team: “I don't think there's anything else we can do, lads.” While the two boats were almost identical in their average speeds both upwind and downwind, the Kiwis had a slightly better average VMG, sailing about 800m less than the Brits. Racing is set to resume at 1.10am tomorrow (NZ time) with a one-race schedule. America's Cup match results Emirates Team New Zealand beat Ineos Britannia by 41s. Emirates Team New Zealand beat Ineos Britannia by 27s. Emirates Team New Zealand beat Ineos Britannia by 52s Emirates Team New Zealand lead the America's Cup first-to-seven series 3-0.

Team New Zealand has officially launched into their America's Cup era.  They rolled their new AC75 out of the shed last week, officially launching it in a ceremony in Auckland yesterday afternoon.  The boat was named Taihoro, the name gifted by Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei, inspired by Taihoro-Nukurangi, the name translates to “to move swiftly as the sea between both sky and earth”.  Team NZ CEO Grant Dalton told Mike Hosking that there is a quantum step up in pace between Te Rehutai, who they defended the America's Cup with last time, and Taihoro.  He said the wizardry of these engineers is that they're able to make incredibly fast boats go faster and faster.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

“The intensities just keep going up”: Peter Burling and Blair Tuke ahead of SailGP in Lyttleton

Eight events deep into the fourth season, Team New Zealand is vying for the top spot in SailGP.  This month the race is returning once more to Lyttleton Harbour in Christchurch, giving the kiwis the home-water advantage.   Peter Burling and Blair Tuke have been on the team since New Zealand sailed onto the scene in season two, and the growth they've witnessed in the scene is impressive.  “It's great for our sport to have a league that's there,” Tuke told Newstalk ZB's Jack Tame.  “To see then the growth of the whole SailGP brand, of the teams individually, viewership numbers all around the world... it's pretty impressive.”  Last year was the first year that a leg of the competition was hosted in New Zealand and the support the team received from local fans was amazing, Burling said.  “Seeing how many people down in, in Lyttleton and Christchurch, you know, got behind us, and it sold out in minutes I think.”  “It was crazy.”  Burling and Tuke have been sailing together since 2008 and in those sixteen years they've experienced the growth and development not only of SailGP, but of sailing as a whole.   “The intensities just keep going up,” Burling said.  Since every team has the same type of boat, winning comes down to the way they use it and the skill of the sailors. Mistakes are costly and events are becoming tighter, with a lot coming down to the fifth race.  “Everyone's starting to push the margins harder and harder."  The competition's timeframe has also aided in its growth, occurring yearly as opposed to every three or four years like the America's Cup or the Olympics.  “The unique thing with the, the GP format is we get such limited time training,” Burling said.  “We're having to develop the whole time during these events.”  While this is great for strengthening the abilities of the racers, it makes it somewhat tricky for newcomers as they don't have the same level of experience.  “Getting to grips with everything is the bit that takes time.”  Burling and Tuke are co-CEOs of the team, which means they not only have to focus on growing their skills on the water, but also growing the business.  “It's like any, any start-up business where yeah, it's not necessarily about those mistakes but how you learn from then, and then grow going forward,” Tuke told Tame.  Their partnership extends even further than SailGP and Team NZ, the pair establishing the Live Ocean Foundation together out of their deep concern for the health of the ocean and the life within it.  The charity is partnered with Team NZ, the pair seeing the platform that SailGP could be for connecting new audiences to what's happening just below the surface.  It's a busy year in sailing, with SailGP, the Olympics, and the America's Cup all taking place, America's Cup occurring not long after SailGP finishes.  “We're incredibly lucky as a sailing team,” Burling said.  “We get to, you know, practice our trade at the really high level in two sporting competitions, essentially.”  The America's Cup is kicking off in August, which means it's too early to have an idea of how it'll shake out just yet. Boat launches in April will give the first insight, Burling told Tame, but even then, you can't be sure how they'll develop over the coming months.   “Keep pushing as hard as you can and hope you're faster than them and racing better at the end.”   LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Grant Dalton is not expecting much backlash from the decision to take an America's Cup preliminary regatta to Saudi Arabia.  After being touted as a potential host venue for the 37th edition of the America's Cup in 2024 before Barcelona was finally revealed as the chosen host, Jeddah will host the second of three preliminary regattas, with America's Cup teams to descend on the Saudi Arabian port city in late November.  It's another case of Saudi Arabia's controversial rise as a major player in world sport, labelled as ‘sportswashing'. Examples include the country's heavy involved in the worlds of football, Formula One, combat sports, and golf, with human rights organisations arguing Saudi Arabia is using sport to divert attention from its tarnished reputation and human rights violations.  Speaking to Newstalk ZB's Mike Hosking, Dalton said he did not expect to face much political backlash when the America's Cup ventures to the Middle East.  “No. Frankly, I think that, from our side, it's the future,” Dalton said.  “Saudi Arabia and, in this case, Jeddah is embracing it, all sports are embracing it. There's always political fallout but, I would suggest, from a lot of people that frankly haven't been there. I have been there and I've seen what is happening, and I think it's a great place.”  Posed with the debate over Saudi Arabia pumping money into sports and that it is where the centre of sport is eventually going to be, Dalton said “you'll never win that argument” but noted that with a large percentage of the Saudi Arabian population being under 34 it was a way for the nation to find pathways into sport.  Reuters reports that a 2022 census showed 63 per cent of the nation's population were under age 30, while the median age of the total population was 29.  “It's just one fact alone,” Dalton said. “I think get onboard because that is the future.”  The decision to host a preliminary regatta immediately created an issue for one America's Cup syndicate, with the New York Yacht Club's American Magic unsuccessfully seeking an exemption from participating in the regatta. They cited heightened safety concerns for a team representing America in a place marked by the US State Department as a terror risk.  Sailing in the preliminary regattas is compulsory for all teams, and the arbitration panel ruled the matter was out of their hands, leaving the decision to Team New Zealand and Ineos Britannia as the defender and challenger of record respectively.  In their submissions to the panel in regard to American Magic's application, both Team New Zealand and Britannia opposed it being granted, however a formal decision on the matter is yet to be announced.  For now, all attention will be on the first preliminary regatta in Vilanova i la Geltru, about 50km southwest of Barcelona, this weekend where the teams will get their first opportunity for proper racing against one another – albeit in the one-design AC40s.  The same vessels will be used for the event in Jeddah, with the final preliminary regatta being contested on AC75s, just before the beginning of the Challenger Series next August.  -NZ Herald See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

DEAN BARKER:Dean Barker is a name that is synonymous with yachting in NZ. Especially the Americas cup. When you think of that event his name is up there with Coutts and Butterworth back in the day and now Burling and Tuke.Unfortunately, he is probably remembered most for being the Team NZ skipper when we were on the receiving end of one of the greatest comebacks in sporting history- remember that? San Francisco 2013. Team NZ was up 8-1 then we ended up losing to Jimmy Spitalls Oracle boat by 9 races to 8. We reflect on that period in great detail in this conversation. We also chat at length about Deans battle with bowel cancer recently. Bowel cancer is the most commonly reported cancer in New Zealand…and probably one of the least talked about cancers. As a country we have 3000 cases and 1200 deaths each year. https://bowelcancernz.org.nz/Dean has always struck me as being like an old school kiwi guy- stoic, strong, silent and intensely private. So I really appreciate him coming on the podcast and being so open about some really personal and painful stuff.Thanks to Radix Nutrition for sponsoring this episode.
