The editors of US website SailingIllustrated.com and New Zealand's Sail-World.com/nz will team up for a live discussion on matters America's Cup tomorrow (Wednesday NZT) at 0800hrs or 2000hrs UTC (and 1300PDT, 1600 EDT, 2200 CET).

The session will be webcast on Sailing Illustrated's Facebook page click here to view, or the show can be replayed at any time.

Sailing Illustrated's host Tom Ehman and Sail-World's NZ Editor Richard Gladwell will have plenty to talk about (including in no particular order):

- what's happening with the Challengers and Defender
- the leaked boat confirmed yesterday evening (NZT)
- hosting options for Auckland and race locations
- the Protocol key points and issues
- a first look at Richard Gladwell's upcoming book 'Lone Wolf - How Emirates Team New Zealand stunned the world' which will go on sale around October 19. It is a ringside account of Team New Zealand from the loss in February 2003 to their win in June 2017 in Bermuda.



The discussion will take place by Skype video with Tom Ehman based in San Francisco and Richard Gladwell in Auckland.

Both have been involved one way and another with the America's Cup since the early 1980's. Should be a lively show.

See you there.
