Fusing athleticism, teamwork, and technology, the monohulls competing for the America’s Cup are the fastest in the world. It was August 2012 when the sailing world was turned upside down by a 72-foot catamaran flying in the Hauraki Gulf. Emirates Team New Zealand had brought the foils to the America’s Cup boats and forever changed the face of top-level racing boat competitions.
Since then, the increase in performance for America’s Cup boats has been greater than at any point in the 170-year history of the event. Six years later, in 2018, the publication of the AC75 Class rule marked the beginning of a new sailing era. Now, foils are commonplace, but the engineering and sailing techniques needed to get the AC75 to fly completely differ from anything seen before.
