Show Notes

CEO Sir Russell Coutts has today announced the City of Sails as the second stop of next season's world tour.

Auckland Unlimited revealed their million-dollar investment to the January regatta, which returned $5million.

Head of Major Events Michelle Hooper told Heather du Plessis-Allan that they're looking to do it all again and continue to have Auckland host in the future.

She says the intention by all parties is to have Auckland host in 2027 and beyond - but they just have to sort out long-term funding.
