A special hello from BlackMatch,

We are very excited to release a new promotional video for the team and hope you will all take the time to view it through this link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6GzEISX2Noo . This video was produced by a friend of ours Hamish Hooper, who is a New Zealand based Sailing TV producer/editor. We are extremely grateful to have had Hamish's generous and professional help. His company website is www.thevc.co.nz and we also hope that you will take the time to visit his site to check out some of the other work that he does.



We would like to say a massive thank you to Hamish for taking the time to produce this for us and we hope that as many people will see it as possible, so please feel free to pass this link on. We would also like to take this opportunity to again thank our sponsor Fedex Express, and also the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron and Emirates Team New Zealand for their unbelievable support.

For any queries about this promotional video or if you would like a down-loadable version please don't hesitate to get in touch, any feedback would also be much appreciated.
