Louis Vuitton Pacific Series
Louis Vuitton pacific series finals - emirates team nZ vs alinghi Too windy for the Americas Cup boats??? - but not for the Weta. Racing was called off on the first day of the finals. This Weta was spotted from North Head sailing circles around the cup boats that were being towed in after racing was called off due to strong winds. Emirates Team New Zealand went on to take the series with a 3-1 win over Alinghi.
