coutts is racing Farr 40 with Platner the owner of the Z86 Morning Glory and is believed to be in a TP52 Campaign, I don't think his lawyer would suggest he even goes in the same room as another team for the AC.

What? He is a professional sportsman who took the best paid job on offer and won ... just what happens in all other sports.

I was in NZ during the cup there  and all those idiots behind the Blackheart campaign ended up looking pretty stupid ...
