Liv Mackay: Black Foils strategist on the impact of the team's collision at the start of the SailGP season - The Sunday Session with Francesca Rudkin

The SailGP season got underway last week, but the Black Foils didn't start out as well as they'd hoped.

A collision with the Swiss boat in the opening race has left them with significant boat damage and in negative points ahead of the Auckland event in under three weeks. 

Black Foils strategist Liv Mackay says the boat is getting repaired ahead of the event, and the team should be back on the water in time.

"It was definitely a pretty shocking situation and definitely something that you don't take lightly - as in, the risk and everything out there. But the season is long, we've definitely been in these similar situations before, so it's not a notch off the goal."
