The fourth day of racing in the 36th Match for the America s Cup will get underway in Auckland this afternoon, off Rangitoto Island and Takapuna Beach
Despite the Government lowering the COVID Alert for Auckland to Level 1, the racing has not been shifted onto Course C around the North Head area as we still have the north easterly breezes. With a little over an hour to go before racing commences, we have 8-9 knots from the north east at the weather station at Bean Rock at the mouth of the Auckland Harbour. Further north at Tiritiri Island, there is 5 to 6 knots from the east. Further out to sea at Channel Island, there is 14 to 18 knots from the east-south-east so we can expect this breeze to hold in. ....

The second day of racing in the 36th Match for the America s Cup will get under way in Auckland this afternoon, off Waiheke Island and the East Auckland beaches.
Despite the Government lowering the COVID Alert for Auckland to Level 1, the announcement came too late for a change to existing arrangements to be made.
The official forecast is for NW variable winds of 6-9kts. As at 1400hrs the winds across the Hauraki Gulf on nowcasting - in the Observations function of Predictwind were showing variable breezes of up to 6kts. On the West Coast of Auckland it is only blowing 11kts - which means that it is unlikely to develop and move across later this afternoon. ....

America's Cup: Day 1 Preview - Course E - great watching from the vineyards

The official forecast is for North Westerly winds of 12-15kts.
Racing will be held on Course E located between the southern coast of Waiheke Island and the East Auckland mainland. The southern coast of Waiheke Island is dotted with vineyards and is a real attraction for those who enjoy fine food and superb wine.
The wind direction is unusual - it was the same direction when American Magic capsized on Day 3 of the the Round Robins of the Prada Cup - however the forecast for today does not include thunderstorms and rainsqualls.
Because of the location of the course off the lee shore of Waiheke Island to the north, expect some movement in the breeze in strength and direction. ....
