benny14 6 Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 The 8 teams have been confirmed for the second LV cup to be raced in Auckland from 9 - 21 March 2010. This is a follow on from last years Louis Vuitton Pacific Series. Following the Louis Vuitton Trophy Auckland regatta there will be further races in La Maddalena, Sardinia (22 May - 6 June), then in Dubai, UAE (13 - 27 November) before Hong Kong in early 2011 (9 - 24 January). Finally, a proper match racing regatta which will generate some proper sailing interest again. Not sure about anyone else but I am more interested in this than the AC. Should be interesting, some good skippers and crews here. More here... http://tvnz.co.nz/sailing-news/teams-finalised-lv-trophy-3347539 Link to post Share on other sites

Fogg 427 Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 I loved watching last year's LVPS. I'll be out there again in spades. Link to post Share on other sites
L'escale 0 Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 Yes I agree - it WAS brilliant 4 boats = 2 races at the same time This year 2 boats = 1 race Wot happens if 1 breaks? Will still follow it but I thought last year they had it right - guess it comes down to available $$ Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Think you read that one too quickly. competed over two weeks in a match race regatta in two pairs of supplied boats 2 x pair = 4 Loved it so much last year, Will make it even bigger this year... I will anyway! Link to post Share on other sites
L'escale 0 Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Really Really hope I am wrong and you are right, on this one - read it some time ago but can't remember where. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 I'll be out there again in spades. You do realise they don't float, don't you? Racing engagements made me miss the last event bar the final. Hopefully there wouldn't be a clash this year and we can get out for a good suss. Link to post Share on other sites
The big T 41 Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Pretty sure its only the two ETNZ boats with an Oracle one as a backup. Link to post Share on other sites
