For all Kiwi sailing enthusiasts and BlackMatch supporters, there is a one hour television special on the Monsoon Cup today. TVNZ are featuring highlights of the final World Tour Event which saw BlackMatch beat Ben Ainslie 3 nil in the final and take out the World Match Racing Title for 2009.

The programme will start at 2pm today on ONE (TVNZ) and with undoubtedly some of the best onboard coverage in sailing to date, it is not to be missed. Please spread the word about the show as for anyone having a lazy Sunday afternoon it will make for awesome viewing and BlackMatch would greatly appreciate the support.

BlackMatch Racing is Adam Minoprio, Dan McLean, David Swete, Tom Powrie and Nick Blackman
