    Kiwi's to win it is a monty, but I'd think you're looking at $1.05 at best
  • TiversTivers    7,720 posts
    I stand corrected - $1.06 on Betfair

    Simon Lo Bom had a maxi yacht named Drum.
    Dropped the keel off it in the Fastnet one year.
    He got trapped inside when it turtled.

    should have bought freight train.... :-w

    The Yank boat (crewed by Aussies) went like a freight train last night in the first race.....................
    The bloody Pom tactician cocked up the second race though.

    Would have got better even after race one yesterday.
    Kiwi's really only need one more win now.

    Shame the yanks / Aussies have only just now found form - exciting racing now, but too little too late.

    Kiwi's blown out to about $1.70 now....................
    They just need to win one race - Yanks / Aussies need to win three.

    Big comeback indeed. 1 race left. You would imgaine the Kiwis will be having a sleepness night.
  • TiversTivers    7,720 posts
    Could have backed the Aussies / Yanks at $10 a week ago !!!

    kiwis $4.20 on betfair. USA $1.30.

    laying NZ early would have proved very rewarding now

    What time tomorrow morning would I need to tune in to see some of this racing?  And on what channel?
  • TiversTivers    7,720 posts
    Race usually kicks off about 4:30
    Ch 502 or 503 usually - isn't up on the schedules yet (as wasn't expected). Check later this evening.

    I'll be recording and then watching (as good as live) when I get up - and not switching on the news beforehand !

    The Aussie guys are just better performance craft and dingy sailors.
    Most of the Kiwi's aboard come from a keel boat background.
