Our special guest for the latest RORC Time Over Distance Series is the Race Director for the 36th America's Cup in Auckland NZ. Iain Murray will be in charge on the water, as he has been for the last two editions in San Francisco and Bermuda.

Murray speaks to Louay Habib about his phenomenal sailing career and the modern-day America's Cup. He is a six-time 18ft Skiff world champion, two-time Etchells world champion and four America's Cups as a sailor. Offshore, Murray has three overall wins and nine line honours victories with Wild Oats XI in the Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race.
