1 00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:02,679 Speaker 1: Team New Zealand have done it again, winning the thirty 2 00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:06,320 Speaker 1: seventh America's Cup in Barcelona. It was a history making 3 00:00:06,320 --> 00:00:08,680 Speaker 1: win for the Kiwis. They are the first team to 4 00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:11,119 Speaker 1: win the trophy for the third time in a row. 5 00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:14,520 Speaker 1: Peter Montgomery is sailing commentator, the voice of Yachting.

But we 8 00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:26,079 Speaker 1: do now have I believe Peter Montgomery with us to 9 00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:27,520 Speaker 1: talk America's Cup. 10 00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:29,160 Speaker 2: Good morning, good morning. 11 00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:32,200 Speaker 1: Thank you for being with me. Really appreciate it. First 12 00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:34,879 Speaker 1: of all, what's your reaction? How are you feeling about this? 13 00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:39,519 Speaker 3: Well? I think given how complex these boats are to 14 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:43,360 Speaker 3: design and bill, this has been a remarkable of achievement 15 00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:47,760 Speaker 3: by Team New Zealand and are gaining tim elands. 16 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:48,760 Speaker 2: Team New Zealand. 17 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:51,760 Speaker 4: Showed what a superior all round package they had from 18 00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:54,600 Speaker 4: the speed and performance of the boat. And more notably, 19 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,760 Speaker 4: the way the savers were talking is when the commentators 20 00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 4: stopped talking over audio, we could hear how combined and 21 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 4: how good the tenz And package was in contrast to 22 00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:08,839 Speaker 4: any of us. It's just seemed only the two helms 23 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 4: when we're talking, and so I was very impressed what 24 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:14,840 Speaker 4: TVZ and were able to pull off. 25 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:18,120 Speaker 1: Peter, do you think it will come the America's Cup 26 00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 1: will come back here? 27 00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:23,440 Speaker 2: Well, who knows a lot of other factors, But when 28 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:26,400 Speaker 2: there's people like you negative against it and a whole 29 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:31,680 Speaker 2: bunch of others, then the end result is that, well 30 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 2: one of the things that the America's Cup will have 31 00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 2: an impact on the New Zealand like no other sporting event. 32 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:44,840 Speaker 2: Are you aware of Southern Spas and Red Wire? I 33 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 2: mean Southern Spas are a huge mass manufacturing operation and 34 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 2: composites and now they've got major contracts with an organization 35 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 2: involved in space exploration because of their brilliant and composites. 36 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 2: I mean there's a sie bar to things. Apart from 37 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 2: all the souper yachts coming to New Zealand where they've 38 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 2: all got to be, a lot of work has done 39 00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:13,040 Speaker 2: and there are other things that bring to New Zealand. 40 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 2: So there's a lot of other factors rather than just 41 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 2: a sporting World Championship where people come in and bring supporters. 42 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 2: There are a lot of sidebar effects from the America's 43 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 2: Cup that people are not considering. 44 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,079 Speaker 1: Good point, good point is a whole industry you could 45 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:35,080 Speaker 1: say that that's behind it and thrives, particularly in Auckland, 46 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:35,800 Speaker 1: off the back of it. 47 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,079 Speaker 2: Peter, we have more than the whole industry, more than 48 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,960 Speaker 2: just a tourism industry and fans coming to fill hotel 49 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:46,840 Speaker 2: rooms or whatever, and more than. 50 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 4: Sale makers and spa makers. There's been a byproduct that's 51 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:55,079 Speaker 4: come out of it that no other sport brings. And 52 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 4: I think that that there's an important factor. I mean here, 53 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 4: Team years well Enios had Mercedi's Formula one, Alinghi had 54 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 4: Red Bull Formula one, Lula Rossa had Ferrari Formal one, 55 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 4: and Team New Zealand didn't have any of that. And 56 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 4: yet they had blokes with the brains and wit to 57 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 4: be able to do that, particularly with their foils, but 58 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 4: no one's giving them any credit for that. It's more well, 59 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 4: I don't want the America's Cup to come to New 60 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 4: Zealand because it's cost you know, rich white, wealthy people 61 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 4: they can pay their own way, when in fact it's 62 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 4: creating a whole bunch of jobs and income in an 63 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 4: area that people are not aware of. 64 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, Peter, thank you very much for your analysis this morning. 65 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 1: Really appreciate having you on the program.
