Peter Burling and Blair Tuke - Day 2 of the ISAF Sailing World Cup in Hyeres, France Jesus Renedo / Sailing Energy http://www.sailingenergy.com/
New Zealand’s Pete Burling and Blair Tuke have won every single 49er regatta they have entered since their 2012 London Silver medal result and that includes multiple world titles, World Cup regattas and the Rio test event.

They were at the time of interview once again atop the leaderboard after two days of 49er racing, here in Hyeres and they consolidated their regatta lead today with two-thirds and a drop..

In this Sail-World interview, Burling talks 49ers, America’s Cup, Moths and Olympic campaigning.
