AC36: Team American Magic launches “The Mule”
Source Team American Magic. Akthough quite an awkward and complicated solution these foiling monos look such a weapon when flying , super smooth. Spare the whirpool capsizes we saw from INEOS UK proto, hope development can solve those problems for the AC75s.
Still the new Americas Cup monohull machine relies heavily on expanding its righting moment outside its own monohull, just trying to mimic multihulls wide platform features & intrinsic advantage.
Above American Magic’s proto. 90 degrees main wings for the foils towards their own “mast”/or foil vertical blade arm. Fastest conf you can get and the team is surely delegating control to the new available and permitted systems.
