Phil Robertson and the Canadians delivered this weekend at the Mubadala New York Grand Prix, finishing second overall and moving two places up the season four leaderboard.
Leading the fleet after day one, the team took a first and fourth in today's fleet races to progress to the final. The heat was on as the Canadians lined up against Emirates GBR and the New Zealand SailGP Team, ahead of the predicted thunder storms. Despite a strong start and consistent sailing, the Kiwis broke away and managed to take the win, while the Canadian finished second.
From here the fleet travels to San Francisco for the grand final of season four in three weeks time. Watch Phil's recap from the Big Apple!
