There was only about 5-7 knots of breeze on the Waitemata Harbour in Auckland on Sunday, but that didn’t stop Emirates Team New Zealand from putting on an awesome display for fans and spies, and sparking confidence in their development towards the 36th America’s Cup in March 2021.

See the footage below. And why the War of the Worlds sound effect? Apparently, that’s what the boat sounds like when sailing under load.
