F5 foils alongside Team New Zealand AC75 Te Aihe (Dolphin).
Cruise New Zealand has chartered F5 to HP one of team New Zealand's sponsors for the Americas Cup event.
HP like the synergy between the two foiling vessels Te Ahie and F5. HP have their logo on Te Aihe’s foils and decided F5 would be the perfect vessel to host their important customers, suppliers and staff during the 36th Americas Cup event.
HP is currently hosting guests aboard F5 to view Team New Zealand testing Te Ahie on the Hauraki Gulf before she heads off overseas for the first round of racing. HP will then utilise F5 during the Christmas Cup, Prada Series and the Americas Cup Match over the summer in 20/21. What an amazing event this is going to be.
