    Yachtie Blair Tuke has found some positives from their disastrous Swiss regatta, as the New Zealand SailGP team head into this weekend's penultimate round in Spain

    Yachtie Blair Tuke has found some positives from their disastrous Swiss regatta, as the New Zealand SailGP team head into this weekend's penultimate round in Spain


    The Black Foils endured their equal-worst placing of eighth on Lake Geneva, where light winds forced the field to sometimes sail with just three crew members, instead of the usual six, to lessen the load and give the boats every opportunity to foil.

    Prepping for the Cadiz Grand Prix , Tuke says they at least learned a heap from sailing with reduced numbers on board.



    The Black Foils are third on the overall ladder.
