Outteridge: up for a $1m payday?

Friday, September 28th, 2018

Written by:

Australian Nathan Outteridge has been linked to prospective Italian America’s Cup challenger Columbus 2021 with a huge wage on offer.

Defenders Emirates Team New Zealand confirm they are in formal talks with Columbus 2021 whose participation would bolster the challenging fleet to four alongside Challenger Of Record Luna Rossa, American Magic of the New York Yacht Club and Sir Ben Ainslie’s INEOS Team UK.

The ambitious Columbus 2021 has spoken of a multinational crew and a need to be “competitive with other teams in every respect”.

They said there were in discussions with a skipper “of high performance classes” and the Italian media has been quick to look at who that might be.

The well-informed La Stampa reported on Friday that “rumours are swirling” about Outteridge, who was on the helm of Sweden’s Artemis Racing for the last two America’s Cups, being involved.
