- Here it is! The ground-breaking new #americascup class race boat concept. The #AC75 is the bold new high performance fully foiling monohull. @emiratesteamnz
Grant Dalton: “Once foiling, the AC75 has the potential to be faster than an AC50 both upwind and downwind.”
@Virtualeye
Wasn't happy when I heard they were retiring the flying catamarans, but I'll give this boat a chance based on the simulation. For the people who want traditional yachts, there's thousands of those races going on all over the world. There's only one event that can even partially financially justify the massive expenditures required for these technological designs. America's Cup needs to continue to push the limits, because if they don't nobody else will.
Epic! Looking forward to watching these boats battle it out.
A Classic stroke of genius to return the America's Cup to the monohull platform, while still retaining the heart and soul of America's Cup as "fast" and tactical, which it truly is about.
..
Incredible, innovation and a huge leap forward. C'mon Ben Ainslie & Team BAR #BringTheCupHome
That moment you spend months designing a world class boat and all of a sudden everyone else knows more about sailing.....Keep throwing the ball as far as you can ETNZ....Great to see innovation over immitation...
very sensible comment

Team NZ are relentless innovators! 👍 keep it up fellas!!
A monohull allows a return to true America's Cup tactics. It is the ultimate match race. Well done NZ!
Love it! What a concept. Well, it's not a new thought. It's just that we can now build this kind of a design and it works!
I thought they might go back to mono hulls, but I wasn't expecting this. I can't wait to see these in the water.
Watching the old 12m class was like watching paint drying and most of the races were settled in the courts, these new boats are the future.
0:58 "Self Righting"
American Magic:
🤣
I remember when people used to watch the America’s Cup. It was a great event.
Fusion between a boat and an edge trimmer.
This is the future
I'll admit, I was skeptical about ditching the catamarans. I loved seeing them on the SF bay, and the energy of their competition had me riveted to their sight. This is definitely a radical shift, but it is by no means a full return to the yachts we had before. My only question is how the foil above water might endanger a neighboring crew, I don't think we'll see these getting as close together as we have recently, but that isn't a bad thing.
it was February 2000, Luna Rossa was challenging Black Magik in the Gulf of hauraki
for the conquest of the America's Cup. Millions of Italians in front of the TV at three o'clock at night,
sighing to push the wind on the sails.
And in the morning, walking down the street after a sleepless night, when you met someone with your same tired expression, you understood that it was someone like you, a bro of the night crazy for sailing, without needing to say a word, a simple nod of agreement was enough.
that was the real America's cup
It's a Ben Hurr race! They also had knives sticking out of their vehicles.
Ben Hurry race.
As a kid sailing with my Dad off Rhode Island I remember seeing the 12-m Intrepid and other vessels in trials. They were breathtaking and graceful boats. Not really seeing that here - although I do admire the innovative technology and human dedication. Watched the 2010 AC here in San Francisco and it was like a digital rodeo or something.
Just sailed on Intrepid last Friday! What a cool boat.
These look spectacular. Quite a step up from foiling Optimists!
Never knew that a production video about a boat could be so intense, Damn .
finally, they are developing something for my Laser as well. Thanks ETNZ :). They keep developing technologies mainly for flat/calm waters while in my opinion it would be more entertaining to see some action in "troubled" waters. That would also be more applicable to everyday business . Step by step. Perhaps one day we'll see the AC at Cape Horn.
Its going to be an exciting race with this new design
WOW , NOW THIS WILL BE INTERESTING ,JIEBBING DOWN WIND BOAT ON BOAT, CLOSE TACKING , Be careful very careful. Looks amazing.
What I love about the America’s Cup is the freedom to exploit technology freely. In its earliest days it used the highest of sailing technology.
Why not enjoy the simplicity and imperfection of classic boats? It bestows a greater sense of freedom accepting and enjoy the simple things in life.
Foil control will be interesting in races. Should provide many strategic variations.
This will be.... interesting. I’ve never seen a yacht like this! Seems like they may be trying to create a REALLY HUGE moth.
They’ve also maintained the wind design of the blade sail, which I thought they were going to move away from, but I guess it is the most efficient shape for it.
Now that the yachts come out of the water, I really like watching this sport. It's much more exciting then what it used to be imo.
if you think about it its kinda sad that they 're changing the windsurfing olimpic class to foil just bc "that looks cooler". They are making it more about money than skills. Many windsurfers dont that much money to spend on foils
great design , clearly safety was the drive over the cat - nice job
super structure.innovation et technologie .Cela sera dur de naviguer par fort temps.Bravo les concepteurs
We got to test the capsize
That was oddly intense music for an anticlimactic vr
Hey, here's an interesting concept. We go back to a 12 metre YACHT, like we raced in Newport R.I. and leave all this hi tech stuff to another class. Race boats not airplanes!
Yeah ok bud
Nah too slow takes 3hrs to complete the course where as these take 45min
30knots they outrun the chase boats
Awesome ideas! An offshore capable foiling boat, with a real below decks area, and an engine! On an America's Cup boat! (Gotta have someway to cant the keels.) We are seeing a real evolution in sailing technology, from carbon fiber to canting keels to foils. Nice animation, by the way.
What lead ballast? I don't see where there is any used.
Yes, you are right.
Awesome and with potentially wider applications with a self-righting design.
WOW !!!! Another winner here😊for Emirates Team New Zealand 2021 America's Cup💕💕love the design, very impressive💕💕
nice graphics, looking forward to seeing a "Real AC75 doing this" ... I did trimaran trifoil designs in 1980 & while I never got to build one it is WONDERFUL TO SEE OTHERS DOING IT! PUSH THE LIMITS!!! Just watch out in tacking duels! (Watch out for "windage" of the flying foil- could be the source of unexpected damage or weight shifts during "gusts and shifting winds". Wind tunnel it!!!!)
Go Kiwi. Bring it home !
in case of collision, they will decapitate half of the other crew...
I really hope that main is reefable. Wind limits suck.
Also, the spinoff value for other sailing vessels of a viable and adaptable winglike soft sail would be amazing, and rehabilitate the reputation of the AmCup.
I have a design for a variable geometry soft wing-sail. Soft, so that it can be reefed down. I am sure that it could be made robust enough for these "boats", but I have my doubts about cruising with one.
ironic that it is the Kiwis that are going to save the America's Cup from itself. Big thank you to the Kiwis.
No the Kiwis helped fuck it.
Amazing engineering, design and construction.
The windward foil is going to slice someone in half! Don't luff too hard in the prestart, jesus!
Ryan Marr that was my first thought too, those foils could be deadly!
both foils will have to be down in the prestart or you can't maneuver , i would laugh if i saw a boat going to the box with one foil set in the air for a start. I wonder if the total width will be any wider than a Cat though , possibly not.
@Wayne Carkeek I disagree. I could see a situation where a windward boat ducks a leeward boat to try to win the pin. With their foil up it could cut straight through the stern of the other boat and kill somebody.
perhaps they will simply ban foils from being in anything but the downward position in the start sequence to make certain , at least we are dealing with professional sailors who have time to understand the craft and are paid to do so. Painting all foils rescue orange might be an idea ;)
Wayne Carkeek you must remember when BAR came crashing down on Dean Barker on Japan in the most recent America's cup. These new boats it might not have ended as well. But I agree fouls down before the gun would be prudent. A dial down on the beat with these flying appendages could still go wrong fast with massive closing speeds.
And today was the day Emirates Team New Zealand won Americas Cup 36
Very very nice formula!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Compliment to Prada and ETNZ!
Going to be interesting to see how this thing sails in rougher conditions.. Still though, won't mean a thing unless there is an actual contest. Here is to hoping for some solid closely fought battles, otherwise they might as well be in rubber dinghies.
Wow, great concept. The multi-hulls quite frankly were already getting tired in the last cup, is time for a change.
great boat concept! Love it! :)
I remember when the America's Cup was raced in sailboats.
Shakes McTremens Seems like a long time ago.
Yup. Back in '86, I had to wait for tomorrow's newspaper to find out who won. In 2017 I watched it live on a mobile phone. You really want a low tech America's Cup?
No TV???
Good old days
You can still watch "sail boats" day in day out all year round! If you are truly into sailing, you can watch the med cup, J class assembly, ICAC rout, Vintage regatta in many countries..... If you want to! People want to talk about the "good ole days", the type of racing they pretend to miss is always on...... come on now. Get real......
That music can chill. Jesus
The music was a deal breaker
I was hoping for a 12m comeback but that was just me.
12 m are shit boring !
wow some cRazy hitech looking boats
Wow - this will be amazing!
yeah cant wait to see one snap off
Yes amazing fail... seriously they really think this boat is going to go fast than an AC Cat. Not going to happen. These boats look more like a tramaran than a monohull. These monohull sailors just need to come over to the darkside, the Multihull world. I mean I have heard this for years, next monohull design will be faster than a multihull. The around the world sailing record is not set at 40 days and the monohull record is 72 days. All speed records are set by multihulls. Just freaking stop messing with you delusions, and come to reality. And for real exciting sailboat racing check out the Extreme Racing Series.
They knew about hydrofoils for a long time. What had to change was that the materials and mechanism that could hoist the entire boat and crew into the air needed to be made available. So that joint on one of the forward foils and the rudder foil take the entire load.
They look like foiling Volvo Race boats.
oh man, so excited!!!!
Awesome concept. The only thing I worry about is safety, with those foils sticking out the side - how long will it be before boats get too close and rip each other's foils off (and hopefully not both sink).
We just advance sailing again! ;o) Its a drag race now. Foiling is the new now with excitement. Going where no sailor has gone before. Thanks
EmiratesTeamNZ and CZcams.
Yea nice stuff just pity this shit infected the Americas cup, its been shit ever since everyone stopped sailing the 12m mono's.
I think it's going to need an additional centerline keel foil ultimately to help with slipping...
I like this design though!
Wow. I am so looking forward to this. Great job by New Zealand. A true step forward.
The faster you go, the weather foil might create lift to leeward, against the counter weight and the lift of the submerged foil. A self righting 75 footer might put crew in the water at another set of risks other than the initial risk of a boat that big and fast going down.
There is something about a keel that connects the whole idea.
I see racers like this in the 12’ - 22 ft. Fun.
In that movie the sails apparently don't change sides when tacking. Know THAT would be revolutionary.
If these boats actually happen, it will be fun watching those foils get hung up with another boat. Just hope nobody gets killed when they do.
I feel like the music is a little over dramatic.
Just a little? I kept expecting a velociraptor to jump up out of the sea and begin devouring the crew.
😎
It's a dramatic race.
This is dramatic, what’s happening at the moment...really dramatic!
Everything needs to be hyped, ( so tiiring) it's not interesting if it needs to be fluffed like that.
Wow!!!!
Great animation too. One of the best of all Cup animations currently out there.
I was worried about loosing the cats, but not anymore
magentawave I was dead against the cats before I saw them, we were lucky to have 2 rounds in the UK, 7 miles from my home on the seafront, so I could see Land Rover BAR out every day practicing, even though I did race hobie’s in the past, my heart said it was a mono hulls, but the action of the cats was awesome, and I will miss them, but if they can get these things flying, I will be happy, the thing that soured it for me the last cup, was the amount of power needed to run the boat, I like to see ropes being pulled, The Kiwis were amazing with their bikes but they looked like passengers, and the other teams had way too many failures
magentawave, yeah a huge step back to sailing and away from Olympic Cycling. Last year was embarrassing. How do you win America's Cup? With the best sailors? Heck no you just need the best cyclist!! It was awful for the sport. Back to ballast is the only way to save it's reputation.
In my opinion most of the technology used on cats will be ported on mono hulls, including the hydraulic system (with bikes) and computers to control the boat. Probably there will be less people on the boat than expected.
that is part of the evolution, otherwise the nostalgic would have kept the galleons.
It is about technology. Everyone was in awe with the Cats. Go slower is boring and a step back.
Sad to see what everyone else did to this competition once Australia won the ern , pity it still isn't a 12 m class mono hull competition.
I come here because of Tenet :D
Thank you Team New Zealand! I hate the fact that my country lost to you this year, but monohulls should be cooler. I loved the fact that you won with such a small budget! Also, duuuh on having your crew pedal to create hydrualic pressure vs grind. Your leg muscles are much bigger than your arm muscles. My boss @ www.katomarine.com won the AC with Dennis Conner driving Stars & Stripes in 1987. Starboard grinder JIm Kavle. He was 2nd in the Star worlds when he met Dennis in Newport where he'd come to recruit crew. Jim trashed both of his shoulders preparing and racing Stars & Stripes. He even had stress fractures in his wrist(s?) before and during the Cup, he just taped the crap out of them until they won, and had surgery or let it heal when he got back home to the Philly PA area after the races.
Jim's son Porter is following in his father's footsteps, having won the high school triple handed keel boat national championship in St. Petersburg, FL last weekend. Not some rich, expensive private school either. :) Annapolis High School, a county school that AYC or SSA allows to use their 420's to race in.
I've worked with several Kiwis teaching ski school on Mammoth Mountain in CA 2003-2005. Almost all were amazing skiers and very cool guys, really fun to work and party with. :) :) :) If we don't win it back from y'all in 2021, I hope you all win it again.
No!
Yesss... can't wait.
So the jibs remain on starboard even after gybing to port ?
The sailboats are CGI generated. That isn't real sailing
A Mon, Brilliant observation!
21 knots when hove to!
Prophetic
The question here is how long will it last. A lot of moving parts spells unreliable.
They last......as cars do too
We all knew the design concept was going to be a bit alien looking but, this is beyond that. I wonder at what wind speed the boat foils at? 7 knots?
Una delle mie molteplici idee l'avete realizata, complimenti, ma ve ne aspettano di più complesse, complicate,efficenti stupendi mundi. OSSEQUI,
I am excited, this is like Shark floating on water!
It's 2019 now, did they built it already?
czcams.com/video/N3_I2sDVShc/video.html
Looks like one of those frogs on an Attenborough show, signalling by waving its feet. Fun though.
Looks like a Iguana coming at yah!
Si cela tient, il y aura du spectacle !
Красивая яхта. Летящая над волнами.
I grew up racing the old man no holes and it was alright but I'm telling you right now this is where its at this is the latest tech and most hi tech and if you don't get it down yeah bad things can happen but think of the speeds and everything else you seriously are you know racing then so I love it I just agree with the guy before me by
That was quite the lee-bow maneuver at 1:55.
Amazing animation!
❤❤❤ETNZ TE AIHE; the dolphin👌Bless the Crew who sail on her for the AC 2021.. " "CHEERS" Emirates Team New Zeland❤❤❤Keep the AC here in NZ where it belongs😆😆😆👍👌
Brilliant!
simply amazing
Well done.....
Am I missing something or did the windward/Starboard boat clearly foul the leeward/S boat at about 1:52? Perhaps not a good idea when the leeward boat is armed with that decap-o-foil. Emirates may have been hunting Prada while P it was on port. But, by 1:52, Prada clearly has born off and is on Starboard. I know it's just a promo video, but it seems like a stupid error.
UFOs - Unidentified Foiling Objects. I miss seeing those bows crashing through the waves. The beauty, emotion and passion of sailing is absent with these boats.
I can't understand why they don't get more creative with the course. When in San Francisco it could have been easy to work Alcatraz into the mix more so boats had to make a tactical choice. A boat behind could make a right call and make up ground. For the most races, its over at the start then watching follow the leader. Very little chance unless the lead boat does something bone headed. Bring on the Tech, but add more human drama with making a decision.
yeah but its not being held in san fran, might be a bit off coarse if they have to sail around alcatraz
One step behind -- it's already proven that pedal wins race!
Hearing Peter Montgomery in this clip reminds me of the 2007 America's Cup final race 7 between Alinghi and New Zealand, with Alinghi dialing them, and NZ getting a penalty; then the wind dies at the finish as NZ completes its penalty turn, with only a one second winning margin for Alinghi. The race was decided by skill and tactics, plus a little luck. Nothing that has happened in the AC since that race has been even remotely as exciting. Glad to see monohulls return to the AC; however, the hinged outboard foil/keel (or leeboard?) needs to be reconsidered. This is match racing. Imagine the spectacular dismasting that will result when that chicken leg gets caught in the other boat's rigging.
I miss the elegance of the 12 Meter class.....................
...HERE Here! - its a game now, all the romance is out of it ( NOT man vs. sea ...money vs. tech ), PLUS the lost ART of boat-building
Looks amazing.
that is so bad ass
so, we used to have hamburgers (monohauls), but somebody change it to ice-cream (flying cats).... then some people complain, so they gave us hamburger flavored ice-cream
That's great but where are the fishing rod holders?
