    The question is for Team NZ, who will replace him?

    Nathan Outteridge is just as good as Burling, and better in some areas.

    Yeah he’d be top of the list surely.

    As expected.

    Blair Tuke and Andy Maloney won’t be following Peter Burling to the exit door after committing to Team New Zealand’s next defence of the America’s Cup.

    Australia Nathan Outteridge will also replace Burling as skipper for the Cup’s next edition in 2027 after the latter’s bombshell departure last month.

    So no more cyclors (halving the crew number), and they've sold their souls even more to have wannabe influencers on board.

    should have gone one step further and you get to pick someone to be on your oppnent's boat. Maybe with a weight limit. Find the most annoying heckler you can who'll spend the race abusing the other crew.

    It may not be sporting, but I'd sure as shit watch it.
