Yachting New Zealand will later this week launch a new podcast and will kick things off with an in-depth interview with Peter Burling and Blair Tuke.
The podcast, called Broad Reach Radio - the Yachting New Zealand podcast - will feature a range of topics from interviews with top sailors of today and yesteryear to chats with people in the sailing and boating industries. It aims to be informative, entertaining, educational or just something for people to feel connected to the sport.
The first episode will be available for download on Friday and features an interview with Burling and Tuke, who talk about their experiences during the Volvo Ocean Race and what effect it had on them as people and sailors. Burling has talked about the similarities between racing around the world in his Brunel 'bubble' and the present situation in lockdown.
