AC45s at Plymouth: Match Race of the Century: TNZ vs TNZ , Bundock vs Ashby

Time for some Match Racing after some close fleet racing where the usual suspects didn´t shine as past events, specially Spithill.

Today Team New Zeland version 2000 will face TNZ 2011 , on Catamarans and with Ashby and Bundock onboard. You can´t ask for more right now for the Catsailing community and I’m sorry for the isaf stablishment and fellow 6knot stones that still wants to change the incredible racing of the AC45s with some old tractor.

If I recall well Barker was Coutts apprentice, but I  think Barker will just kill Russell on a one on one Match Race on A-Class, as Dean has shown to excell at the highest level at the past Australian A-Class Nats.

Altough Bundy is not actually on a racing position, he will be there, and helming in the future for sure, to have even better match.

This is it the epitome of sailing with the best sailors on earth on the most advanced sailing machines, Catamarans of course. Never a better time to be a Catsailor. Enjoy.-
