So with a leaden sky and the threat of rain it is the Mean Machine crew who head ashore with smiles on their faces, winning the City of Alicante Trophy and they will head for Marseille with a lead of just a single point. Time ran out for the Bribon. At the moment there is that Kiwi Cup strategy of not letting their emotions take, taking the wins and the losses the same, they look pleased by no high fives and man hugs! A great regatta from Peter de Ridder and a team which has sailed together for many years, Ray Davies, Tom Dodson, Stu Bettany, James Dagg, Tony Rae, Jon Gunderson and of course Kevin Hall (USA) who has joined them this year sailed with the ETNZ cup team.
