Another ingredient in the water is the enthusiastic role of Tauranga Boys' College, the school which Burling, Meech and Jason Saunders all attended at the same time. Card payment fee of

Remarkably, the school's old boy presence extends beyond the three sailors, with ex-students including rower Mahe Drysdale, whitewater kayaker Mike Dawson and another kayaker Bryden Nicholas representing the Cook Islands.

Proud principal Robert Mangan says the school is "basking in reflective glory".

"We're riding the crest of the wave in terms of success."
