Americas Cup: TNZ AC75 Code Zero Test
Photos by Emirates Team New Zealand. One of the comments on TNZ fb post I think nails the issue: “…The new AC75s need Code Zero to get airborne but once up your apparent & speed increase plenty to the point you don’t need it anymore..” Whichever the case the Americas Cup Multihulls evolved to eliminate the Code Zero and the new latest AC Tech brings them back, objective remark is that right now the AC75 it is not an efficient machine as the AC50/F50s.
For the rest I like to watch these beasts sail over the AC50s, racing wise the AC75 will need to match the Sail GP & Bermuda level of performance and competitiveness.
