Why have that stupid (music) in the background 🤬🤬🤬🤬

should a sharpened the pencil on the main...;-) Oops sorry I thought this was about Comanche, my bad.

I got the feeling the girl is not grasping anything he’s saying

Sensational race so far!! Hope you will reach the Top 10!

I worked at North Sails XY plotter

Amazing piece of engineering to have something retractable yet strong enough not only to take the weight of the boat but also the pounding it must absorb. Do they have to be cognizant of crew position for CG issues? How big is the envelope and are there advantages to being more forward or more rearward in the envelope?

Here for the Team Havoc quality memes. Thank you for all that you do for sailing Instagram! Someone should sponsor this boat's new sails.... ( ͡❛ ͜ʖ ͡❛)💨

Good luck Comanche, this time you'll win it

Fantastic video. Thank you!

HMU if you need crew. My availability is terrible and tactically I have less than nothing to offer, but I do like boat ride 😂 Fair winds skipper!

Go back to the old logo. The new one is just so bad.

Are they dacron sails

two weeks and a year ago I started my race. Hehe, hope all competitors have a better start than mine. (tooth extraction, 36hr rush job on gear last minute. Line caught on rudder... ) Special Good luck to Boris H ! You got this !

Bull Feathers. One design or no design.

Lovely boat, very well explained. Try Quantum Sails tutorials one day to be convinced. I noticed the backstays....and the fathead. By personal experience; a busy combination! The one tutorial I haven't found yet, is how to use those together well in different conditions. On open Oceans it's ok. On busy waters however...

Boleros

the helmsman sails blind whethe main sail is played out full it would pay to add a widow of clear sail cloth to viewvthrough , At thosevhigh speeds one day two vessel will collide perhps a death ortwo or three perhaps.?

I visited the plant about a year after it was open. Pretty cool stuff.

Thank you for producing this! I can’t believe no one else has commented. Cool to have such technology that you’ve the Cup monopoly

I'd love to see the cup go back to Freemantle

Amazing...

Why is it - that Australia is no longer involved in the America's Cup these days? Would they in their competitive nature be a force to deal with against the Kiwis? Since the Cats were introduced and now the foiling monohulls the Cup has changed forever. 132-year winning streak... now there is something for the Kiwis to strive for. The next venue - wherever that might be is about who pays the most money for the event. The defender should defend on home waters until beaten fair & square. The oldest sporting trophy there is but some of the drama has disappeared from the racing. No crew work- changing jibs on the fly to adapt to changing wind conditions. No true spinnaker runs downwind to finish, no dial ups in the prestart sequence.

very good, thx

Hard to get a word in around PM:)

For sure, North Sails could make a 100x better #KiteTurbine than I have. And thank you for the windsurfing kit I've abused so badly. Great to hear about the intensity and scale of the business which engineers these marvels of natural propulsion ❤

Thanks, now I can get some sleep...

Interesting, how do these double skinned soft sails compare to the efficiency of the wing sails on the Sail GP cats? Any other boats looking to use this technology or is it too expensive with the hydraulic sail shaping controls?

So many insights. This is brilliant

Ken very well done, congratulations, cannot say less, how good is this podcast, and how much I actually miss you commenting on the current cup. The contrast between the current cup and Tom’s opinions bridge the gap perfectly. Look forward to more as the cup advances. Cheers CAV

It's hugely interesting to hear Nathan talk about things like the other boat showing on the display, along with laylines and ghost projections. I could not understand how teams could consistently position themselves so successfully in relation to the other boat on the mark roundings, if they could only see their own boat. It would also seem that Team NZ must have done a pretty good job with the race software supplied to all teams, and the early carping from the likes of Ben Ainslie with regard to prestart timing etc was either (at least in part) gamesmanship or it got sorted rather quickly, otherwise the manoeuvres would have not been of a generally high standard. I also wonder if it was a data transmission problem, more than buggy software. Occasional problems with correctly updating overlay lines, eg the start area entry boundaries, seem to my untutored eye more like bandwidth, buffering or error-check issues than anything inherent to the process.

As Bruno said, luna rossa did open the door, and Ben did take it off its hinges. Good foresight!

I’m glad to see a sailmaker that continues to develop new and better products for the sport. I’m not sure about the this presentation format. But I guess it’s more engaging than action video, graphics and VO. Give Paul a better shirt, though!

Excellent, thanks! I miss your commentary on races.

What happened with Cuben...?

Great video! Thank you so much for the really helpful and simple explanations

Check mozzy sails for data …..

price tags gotta be ur soul

At least it's titled correctly. I've never seen such terrible cinematography.

Blah blah… I get it, it’s an add.

I used to own 12M magic. What a beast of a boat 😊

The wing_mast_chord /total_sail_chord ratio looks smaller than the New Zealand boat. It must be fun to print out carbon fiber sail membranes.

They are scary at first

I've been on one

I remember Love Machine sitting on the hard at the Essex Boat Works (or maybe it was Fiji Warrior). Aside, I have a hard time imagining Dennis Connor kitted out in the current Top Gun regalia climbing into the helmsman's pod of an AC75. All the AC75 sails are stamped North Sails.

Legend of the sport!

I wish he'd do a book or at least a video on Liberty. He didn't mention Liberty at all here. I mean, if it's all about "learning from life" etc.....

Great Video, I have a poster of Star & Stripes signed by him from 1987

Why do you use these sailing monster racing boats to demonstrate how to trim the sails? what percentage of your buyers have easily adjustable backstays and what percentage of those who has it actually knows how to do that while sailing? Guys, most of us are using in-mast furling mains, our sails has no battens, they are mostly made by DX 350 or 380 fabrics, no carbon masts, no carbon sails and even no carbon wheels etc. we are your customers who doesn't even know that backstays (or shrouds or forestays) are trimmable things while in use... we're the ppl who needs information and some education if possible... video makes me feel like a complete moron as I keep watching... I assume that the ones who has got the boats like in the video doesn't even bother to watch this kind'a content as it gives nothing new that they haven't yet... this is my rookie (pre-intermediate at most) opinion of course...
