Video source Sail GP YT channel. New SailGP Wing for the second season. A modular setup allowing to remove an entire section when breeze is up, along more twist and configuration options, including one button automatic trim or presets. Mike Drummond was the responsible for the Oracle Tri Wing which close the deal vs Alinghi. Mike now as head Design for Sail GP has his boys going for a new generation Multihull Wing aiming to break the speed record for course racing platforms, slowly targeting the real of Paul Larsen’s SailRocket dedicated speed machine.

These latest Sail GP developments will deliver more efficiency and more speed. The Sail GP needs to be the fastest platform outhere to show the series have their own special assets vs the Americas Cup show.

The AC in contrast can be sailed in J24s that the mystic will remain, still having a former AC boat being faster (IF) will be a hit for the new AC75 experiment, which we suppose, it was intended to improve the AC50 design. (??)
