JC: So Paul, let's start with congratulations. You have just been announced as the skipper of the Swiss Tudor Team Alinghi 38th America's Cup challenger. How does that feel?
PG: I think the start of any campaign is always super exciting. The last two days, we've been sitting with Ernesto [Bertelli team owner], going through the plans and trying to work out a strategy – and the chance to come in and be so involved is pretty special. I had a similar sort of thing last time with Doug DeVos [co-founder of American Magic].
It very much feels like a really close knit team already. We're quite a small team to start with – and that has its advantages and disadvantages. But, when I look back to some of my other campaigns, when you're at the start and you're a small group, you get quite tight-knit. It feels like a great place to be.
