Ac75 layout. In this case the deck of the AC75 is an endplate for the bottom of the soft wingsail. Six years later in 2018 the publication of the AC75 Class rule marked the beginning of a new sailing era. The mechatronics required to move the A75s foils deliver precision handling and speed and while they may look basic in form their execution is anything but standard.

So an endplate is just something that stops this flow over the end. In stern shots taken while the team set up yesterday at the entrance to the Waitemata there were no major changes visible in what is a very simple and clear AC75 layout. Because they provide such an important energy source for the AC75 its mission-critical to maximize efficiency in the cockpit areas.

4 AC75 Lines Barely 76 tonnes for a hull of 2070 metres long by 5 metres of beam maximum the narrow waterline. Built in view of the 2020 regattas in Cagliari and Portsmouth they are now destined to be scrapped as these races have been canceled.

This probably gives structural integrity to handle the mainsheet loads needed to control twist and provides a deck surface to endplate the mainsail. 370 metres flat bottoms sections close to a bilge hull and highly stretched lines such as few monohulls. So when an AC75 is sailing upwind in 18 knots of breeze at a boatspeed of 40 knots the crew on deck will be experiencing 40 knots of wind over the decks plus a percentage of the true wind speed.

Speaking on the design development and build of Britannia INEOS TEAM UK. Unlike ocean monohulls where twin foils have a single shaped blade the AC75 yachts feature two canting foils of over 5 meters equipped with a curved shaft and a long terminal T-section. Americas Cup grinders have a massive impact on the deck layout itself.

The much-anticipated launch of the first two AC75 foiling monohull yachts from the Defender Emirates Team New Zealand and USA Challenger NYYC American Magic respectively did not disappoint the masses of Americas Cup fans waiting eagerly for their first glimpse of an AC75 in the flesh. The two AC75s launched to date have little in common other than they are 75ft long are sloop rigged and are 135ft between the Foil Arm rotation pins. They spend a lot of time there.
