INEOS Team UK AC75: Boomless setup
Photo: Team INEOS UK – This is no F18, and the technology, resources and systems involved are nowhere to be compared. But in our experience with boomless DS in the F18 have shown exactly the foot shape above which has delivered plenty of issues to depower and flatten the sail with more wind. Although these beasts need power to lift off, thus the power vs drag tradeoff. Eitherway new grounds to be discovered for the AC75s.
The AC75 does not relies in human power to trim/flat the main so cannot be compared, and above it is a simple note on what most of us can sail. Lets see if boomless mainsails setups can serve for such weapons targeting a faster ride than AC50/F50s,
