“It’s a luxury having five days of practice leading up to this regatta as it is a great opportunity for us to work with the new boat configuration, mast modifications and sails before the
2014 Mini Maxi Rolex World Championship,” said the team’s Crew Boss Mike Sanderson adding that the team will be racing against a large group of mini maxis next week. “Copa del Rey is a great event where we get to put our best foot forward against the opposition. The boat is feeling great so bring it on.”
