Yep, includes KIWI's apparently 40,000 of em live here anyway.
Anybody from Darwin yet? and Steve, your right, most appropriate to keep speed and gybes at a 100% mark in that part of the pond.

I think it'd be great to have our kiwi cousins on board, but what about the sponsors?
I wouldn't think Aussie sponsors would be interested in giving prizes to a population that it has no hope of selling stuff to. If there are enough kiwi teams you may get kiwi sponsors for them, but that's getting tricky. The other option is not to offer Aussie sponsored prizes to people who don't shop in Aus, don't know. Maybe consult sponsors first see what they say.

I'm with the Old Fella regarding prizes, don't think it'll be a problem though, because most of us aren't in it for that reason.

I heard that New Zealand occupies many states of Australia - by default. Whoops - I'm one of them.

If we are opening the door then what about Hennie and the boys in Seth Efrica.
It could be a southern hemisphere type thing.
Then maybe there are a few fast types in Brazil and Argentina and maybe even Bolivia!!

Why not?

Have a look on the list theres a Seppo team there

The kiwi Brothers might give some grief to the Morton bay and Swanny mobs.

Them's got some quick little sheep shaggers over there

Talking about sheep, has anyone seen the movie "Black Sheep" where the sheep get their revenge? Is it any good?

I've only seen the trailer, but it looks like it could be fun.

I reckon the Kiwi's set the bench marks in a lot of forms of sailing,including taking that cup back in the eighties....So they've got my vote!

The worst thing about that was the fact that you were shagging a sheep when you did it

No wonder the kiwis sail fast those bloody sheep fly across the water
