Oracle Team USA skipper Jimmy Spithill is keeping his cards close to his chest over his potential involvement in the next America's Cup.
The Aussie helmsman is in New Zealand to promote his book, Chasing the Cup, My America's Cup journey.
Spithill told the Radio Sport Breakfast until Emirates Team New Zealand announce the protocols for the Cup defence next Friday, he can't commit to a Cup challenge.
"Well it all depends on the rules I think, you know I think that's a huge factor and until we know where they are everyone's in a huge holding pattern.'
Spithill said like everyone he's in limbo until Emirates Team New Zealand announce the protocols for the Cup defence next Friday.
"Yeah, I think a lot of people are for sure, because you don't know, you say 'I'm gonna be in the America's Cup' well what is it?"
