Sail-World's New Zealand and America's Cup Editor, Richard Gladwell, appeared in a live studio interview on the Paul Henry Show - www.paulhenry.co.nz - which is broadcast live on three platforms - Television, Radio and the Internet.

The team say they're now assessing their governance requirements for the future, as they battle for sponsorship after the Government confirmed it would not be investing in the next campaign.

To discuss what all this means and what the future holds for the team, yachting commentator and America's Cup editor for Sail-World.com Richard Gladwell joined Paul Henry this morning.
