"I hope the America’s Cup teams will take notice of what we have achieved recently, because I would love to get involved in that scene," said in June the 27-year-old Jesper Radich of Denmark after his victory in the match race Germany.

But while its top sailors were highly competitive on the international scene and have won most of the top international trophies, Denmark has never succeeded in establishing a campaign for the America's Cup.

Is the time now? One can believe it as, during a press conference at the opening of the Berlin Match Race, the young dane replied to the question of a 2007 America´s Cup Campaign that he is now hoping for a Danish–Nordic campaign headed by the skipper Jesper Bank.

Two-time Olympic gold medalist, Bank was helmsman in the Victory Challenge team (with the Swede Magnus Holmberg) during the last America's Cup regatta.
