Since many of us are really technical geeks, take a peek at the previews to see the new AC72 class that they are racing now-a-days. I think the crews number in the teens with full floatation wetsuits and helmets along with wireless intercoms...
I have seen the boats roar to 47 mph in 20 knot breezes and up on hydrofoils with enough speed to tack through the eye of the wind and remain up on the foils. The boats weigh an average or 14,000 pounds as well and all and all... they represent a quantum leap forward in sailing technology and materials.
Hope you guys can enjoy this... I believe WE are racing our KIWI friends for the cup... When NZ won the cup a few years back there was so much excitement there I thought those two small islands were gonna sink!
