The America's Cup is heading back to court again and Team New Zealand is unlikely to feature in the next event.

But the Kiwi sailors have been doing some yachting and it is good news for Team New Zealand skipper Dean Barker.

Barker and his crew enjoyed a nine-nil clean sweep in the RC 44 regatta in Italy.

The match racing was designed by fellow Kiwi, and BMW Oracle skipper, Russell Coutts.

The win will provide a timely boost for the New Zealand team with their TP 52 class campaign starting in Spain next month.
