AC40 - Designed To Travel

The AC40 has been making waves with its performance on the water, but its design is just as impressive on the all-important logistical side of things also. In recent days, Emirates Team New Zealand have been preparing and packing their AC40 `Te Kakahi’ for shipping to Barcelona. Now neatly packed onto its single shipping flat rack which includes the full hull, the rig, the foil arms and foil wings intricately designed to be as efficient to transport as possible.

Unreal! Amazing that transportation of these Ac 40’s has also played a part in the design of these great “small” America’s Cup boats. I really think these yachts will become a regular part of the sailing fraternity.
Just imagine 10 or more of these yachts competing for the best start position. I think, in terms of accessibility, they can seriously rival the Sail GP series.
