CC MEMO -- Genoa Lettering

At its March meeting the CC supported the display of country names on genoas, and for the sake of aesthetics encouraged teams doing so to use similar lettering (location and size) to that already being used by Emirates Team New Zealand.

ETNZ CC Rep Jim Farmer agreed to provide details of their display, which follow:
  • Height of lettering is 500 mm.
  • Type face is Eurostyle Bold Oblique, in ETNZ's case stretched horizontally by 10% and with a stroke (extra thickness) at 2.8% when the N is at 100%.

Teams can judge location from the photo below.
