Guest Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Does anybody know how bad the damage is? Saw them trying to fix something around that area during the postponement but didnt know what or how bad. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Hilarious that Spitall was being interviewed minutes earlier and said he didn't know any way to negate the port advantage at the start, then DB showed exactly how it was done. Link to post Share on other sites
RushMan 31 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Does anybody know how bad the damage is? Saw them trying to fix something around that area during the postponement but didnt know what or how bad. My uneducated guess would be damage on the wing base fairing. Both boats touched down pretty hard on leg one, perhaps water pressure caused some damage. They were attempting a quick fix with sticky back so probably nothing too major, a flat panel replacement should be out of the oven in time to cook dinner. Link to post Share on other sites

dutyfree 170 Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 been looking at the race number for today. Second lowest avg windspeed of the cup finals. First competed race in the last four that ETNZ have had the higher avg tacking speeds. Boats getting better all the time. But hopefully only one more........ Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 To win the AC Oracle - $12.00 ETNZ - $1.01 It seems the TAB ave made up their mind. You can bet on Ice Hockey at the NZ TAB????? Link to post Share on other sites
