SeaSailSurfer of June 2007 : Grant Dalton
Winner of the Louis Vuitton Cup with Emirates Team NZL : Called to the rescue of the Kiwi challenger in 2003, the New Zealander, 50 years last July 1st, managed to fill its first contract. While winning the Louis Vuitton Cup, the loosing Defender of the 31th edition of the Cup signed its come-back against Alinghi for the match of the 32e America’s Cup… A spirit of revenge in the air. Mission accomplished ?
To replace Peter Blake then Russel Coutts, it was necessary for Kiwis to find somebody who would not fear of the comparison with his great predecessors. Winner in his past offshore career of the Whitbread 1981-82, and of The Race in 2001 (between others), Dalton came to carry his offshore experiment to the very specific field of the match-racing match-racing #MatchRacing for this 32nd America’s Cup. And the least that one can say is that he reached that (firts) goal. Dalton is the man of June 2007.
