branding idea yes but also more accurate than any other so called national boat, most sailors in Team NZ are Kiwi - I think all but 2, and most of the funding comes from the NZ govt - ie us! on oracle there is only 2 americans which makes the NZ v US thing a bit silly. I recall rading somewhere that Dalton has said that when we win it the rules will change, firstly they go back to the big boats and also you have to sail for your own country - so that will mix it up a bit.
