38th America's Cup

The Royal Yacht Squadron has confirmed that it lodged a Notice of Challenge for the America's Cup, and the Cowes based club will be the Challenger of Record for the 38th Match.

"We've put in another challenge for the 38th America's Cup, and that challenge has been accepted by the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron," said Bertie Bicket, a Director of Royal Yacht Squadron Ltd, after RNZYS had successfully conducted its Defence of the 173 year old trophy.

The Challenge was made as soon as the RNZYS Defender Taihoro crossed the finish line to win its seventh race in the best of 13 race series, off Barcelona on Saturday afternoon.

Oh now they are bringing weapons for the next race and I thought that this was a gentleman's sport

After sinking half of the NZ Navy earlier this month, NZ wants to try to lose their air force 🥴

@Stephie The RNZAF is an oxymoron. No fighter planes and our Roundal is a flightless bird. A Kiwibird nonetheless.

@KiwiBird if you don't know that it is a kiwi bird, it looks scary enough to force the enemy back to their bases.

The force lies in the dissuation.
