For the first time in the Prada Cup, Course A off Auckland s East Coast Bays, and North Shore suburbs, will be used. For American Magic helmsman, Dean Barker, the call couldn t be better - the top end of the course is off his old sailing club Murrays Bay SC, and its southern end is off Black Rock on Milford Beach. The course will parallel the coastline - and the waters are where he sailed Optimists, P-class and all his Youth sailing up until the time he won a World Youth Championship sailing in the then Laser class.
