Bad start ETNZ

 

Watch and read Dean Barker as he states he had a bad day.

A first and a 4th? to be in second place, 1 point behind the leader?

 

Yeah, sounds like a terrible day to me....

 

Didn't watch your link, it doesn't work.

A 4th when every body on this site say that ETNZ are well ahead of the rest.

 

A 4th - Beaten by so many boats - It was a Bad Day

 

 

Beaten by Luna Rossa, Energy team and J. P Morgan.

 

 

Whats going on. Is ETNZ GOING DOWN NOW .

The only teams to really worry about are the teams with 72's. The rest are just making up the numbers for the cameras. I was surprised ETNZ are as high as 2nd. They have done very little sailing in the 45's this year.

I'm guessing you are trolling as per usual and shouldn't be fed but - as they crossed the line in the last race barker was saying to his crew "good day guys" so he can't be too upset about it nor should he be. First race they won, 2nd race they got blanketed by a couple of OCS boats at the start and then spent the race recovering - not a hell of a lot they could do differently. Maybe you should actually watch it before commenting next time. I do enjoy these events - hopefully they will find some good use for the 45's after the AC is finished.

At least you appear to be writing in English at the moment, even if your punctuation is lacking.

Yaaaaawwwwwn!,,

 

Who cares. This AC is a boring waste of time and money.

 

Can we have the refined tactical skill' that is march racing, where the sailors made the race and not the boats and technology.

 

This type of racing is becoming boring and is only appealing to the thrill seeker rather than the intelligent racing/tactical sailors.

 

It is T20 when 12 Metres were a magical 5 day test that was full of twists an turns and great tactical nuances.

Annother bad Day.

 

 

 

Baker Stated they where going to use this to refine their sailing skills.

 

 

What has happened to their sailing skills now. Can they sail in race made. Boat Next.

Yeah Like Lunna Rossa, Oracle, and Energy. Have they not been sailing their 72s as well, so it can be said they have done very little sailing in the same class. Artemis has done the most but where are they now. Lunna Rossa have both boats in, despite racing ETNZ in their 72 against ETNZ all year long in the gulf.

 

 

I think they call it sailing skill and able to adapt to all conditions and boat classes.

 

 

The thing that I have noticed is that the other teams have not been wasting their time making comedy shows or portraying that they are such hot favourites they can rip $21 million sponsors cheques, toss it in the rubbish bin when they could have accepted it, and given it to say - to the blind foundation so every blind person in N.Z. could obtain a seeing dog or save the Maui and Hector endangered dolphins org.

 

Plus give the impression they drink a lot of coffee.

 

I wonder what the sponsors think now.

 

Let the comedians remain comedians and the serious sailors keep on winning.

For once we agree OC. It was good to see that even after being penalised in every race they had today ETNZ could still adapt and use their superior sailing skills to stay in 2nd only 2 tiny points behind a team that said 'we had a very good day on the water'.

 

 

They need to get in an experienced F1 producer or give the current one some downers.
