It is said that the boating industry was producing 200 million, since winning cup that industry is now producing 2 billion, so it is not all bad!

So it is said.

And if the claimed returns are as they so, then so be it.

I wonder how much the plastic waka will benifit the boating industry.:stare:

The Melbourne F1 Grand Prix in Aussie runs at a few million dollar loss every year but the injection of money into the local enonomy from the 200,000 plus visitors is tremendous and far outweighs not having the Grand Prix.

According to the news they are entirely to blame for it. They were the ones who sign the legal agreement to fund Team NZ for the AC and it would have cost the current Gov a legal bucket to try and get out of it..

You seem to be under the impession that maori activity(if I can use that word) has to make some sort of return?

Have you got an actual source for that piece of info Paul? I know that's what "They"'re saying but has anyone like us ordinary plebs actually seen the terms of "the contract"?

I think you need to have a good look at where Bill's investments are Cicero and you might think it is robbing Peter to pay Paul.
