Grant Dalton introduces the team

Grant Dalton introduces the team

Emirates Team New Zealand managing director Grant Dalton is delighted with the calibre of the people who make up the core of the team for 2007.

“Twelve months ago we set out to bring together the best sailing skills and the best design team, back them with the best support available and create a team that can win the America’s Cup.

“We aimed to broaden the team’s skill and experience base and encourage the innovation and flair for which the team is renowned.

“Where these people were not available in New Zealand we went overseas on to the open market where a number of syndicates were actively recruiting.

“Such is the respect with which Emirates Team New Zealand is held internationally, in almost every instance, the people we wanted signed with us despite competitive offers.

“Today, with 70 people under contract, we have a team that is more experienced and it is more international in its makeup. At full strength the team will number 90 people.

“The depth of experience is remarkable. Some members of our design and sailing teams have been involved in the America’s Cup since the Fremantle regatta in 1987. Some go back even further than that. These people, who were young men in their early 20s with the New Zealand Challenge in the 80s, are now seasoned veterans.

“The fact that they are still involved in the America’s Cup says a lot about the skills and commitment they bring to Emirates Team New Zealand.

“We also have a number of young yachtsmen who are competing successfully in the Olympic classes. They are multi-talented helmsmen, tacticians, strategists, navigators and trimmers.

“The design team is already at work; and sailing team members have been competing in regattas all over the world. A number have Olympic campaigns; others are focusing on the match racing circuit.

“In fact, the team will have divided loyalties when the Finn class is sailed at the Athens Olympic Games: Dean Barker is representing New Zealand, Ben Ainslie is representing England and Kevin Hall the United States.

“The America’s Cup environment today may have little resemblance to what it was 20 years ago, but some things never change. To win people have to be focused, dedicated and the best.”
