  Hi all,

Kia Ora,

I'm in the middle of watching the third race of the Louis Vuitton
inal( The winner will challenge for the American Cup) Yesterday the race was
cancelled because the sea was like a mirror.
But  today,well if you get a chance to watch it on TV. have a look and see
what  the Hauraki gulf looks like in 20 - knot winds. Particularly when the
tide changes and runs into the wind.

This is our kayking country and we love it but treat it with the utmost
respect because it is not unusual for the weather (and wind) to change 6
times a day,at times from one extreme to the other.
At the moment +ACI-PRADA+ACI- is leading but unil they cross the finish anything can
happen.
+ACI-America One+ACI- got the better of them last time.
 Eddie.
