Yachting talks
NZPA Washington The America’s Cup challenger, Michael Fay, will have further talks today with the defending San Diego Yacht Club over the structure of this year’s challenge. A Fay Spokesman, Peter Debreceny, said from San Diego last evening that there were "meaningful.” talks under way but he would not elaborate. “There was a dialogue, which is a good step forward,” he said. Mr Fay, together with his legal representative, Andrew Johns, and the yacht designer, Bruce
Farr, held a 2i/ 2 -hour meeting with representatives of the San Diego Yacht Club America’s Cup committee yesterday afternoon. At issue are most of the key unresolved aspects of the Cup challenge, including the specific timing and number of the races, the' type of yachts San Diego will defend in and the location of the event. Since the beginning of the week Mr Fay and his group have been putting the New Zealand side of the contentious arguments over the America’s Cup to civic and business leaders in San Diego.
