The Redbull Youth America’s Cup is under way. The AC45’s hit the water with much anticipation and these young guns battling it out around the short course is proving to be a spectacle worth watching. We have seen 4 thrilling races so far, each one with its share of close calls, aggressive sailing and technical mishaps. There has been a different winner for each race, showing that it’s anyone’s title to take home, but consistency counts for everything and Zhik has 3 of its 4 teams at the top of the leader board. It’s going to be a great series and we can’t wait so see how things unfold next.

Current leader board is as follows:
1. NZL Sailing Team with ETNZ (NZL)
2. American Youth Sailing Force (USA)
3. Team Tilt (SUI)
4. Swedish Youth Challenge (SWE)
5. Full Metal Jacket (NZL)
6. ROFF/Cascais Sailing Team (POR)
7. Next World Energy (FRA)
