Team New Zealand won the “Auld Mug” with the assistance of money from the Emirates!

The Wikipedia article on skipper Peter Burling says that he started sailing at age six in a beginners or “Optimist” class “pram” dingy in Welcome Bay Tauranga, a beginner’s yacht for up to 15y and designed to be made out of two 4 ft by 8 ft sheets of plywood. A pram dinghy has a transom not pointed bow.
