Hello sailors,
If you have been following the Prada Cup Final, when and how racing will continue still seems uncertain, but hopefully we should have more clarity soon. In case you missed the news, day 3 of the event was postponed when Auckland was put into a lockdown due to some new COVID-19 cases. Keep an eye out on MySail News or the America’s Cup website for updates on the situation in New Zealand.
A few readers have mentioned they are having trouble with the links in these emails, so to make sure everyone can access the stories I’ve added in the direct URLs as well as the links for the stories below.
Enjoy reading the latest news and stories from the sailing world below, and until next week, happy sailing 😊⛵
