Watch: Team New Zealand want North Shore course for 2021 – 'If the Cup's here, that's where we'd hold it'

November 21, 2017

CEO Grant Dalton has nailed his colours to the mast for the next America's Cup venue.

Should the 2021 America's Cup be held in New Zealand, then Team New Zealand would prefer a race course on the North Shore, CEO Grant Dalton says.

As the team revealed their new AC75 boat design today , the computer generated graphics showed a remarkable resemblance to Takapuna - something Dalton says is no coincidence.

"You can read quite a lot into that, If the Cup's here, that's where we'd hold it," he said.

"The piece in the video is sort of Takapuna-Milford area and over towards Rangitoto and that is exactly where we'd like to hold it."
