    Blair Tuke is a fan of the new Sail GP league that has recently been launched in Sydney


    The competition uses boats similar to those in the 2017 America's Cup, but has as many as six yachts on the course at any one time.

    Sail GP is run by former Oracle Team USA owner Larry Ellison, and is seen as a rival to the America's Cup.

    Tuke, who will sail for Team New Zealand at the 2021 America's Cup in New Zealand, was impressed by the first leg of Sail GP at the weekend.
