Imagine another 50 superyachts sailing into New Zealand, each bringing about $5 million in economic benefits to the country.
That $250m-plus boost would be just the start of the magnitude hosting an America’s Cup event could have.
Emirates Team New Zealand benefactor Stephen Tindall has let slip he was “looking forward to racing in Auckland in four years’ time” on NZME radio, but no official announcements have been made about the next America’s Cup format, host country or port.
Auckland Tourism, Events and Economic Development chief executive Brett O’Riley said Auckland was experienced at hosting world-class major sporting events.
