Excellent data for the blog’s 1001 post.
Cats are back in Rio (pending final confirm on 2011) and the first AC45 hull is on its way.
-> Check transom and back beam position, already differs (at least at this stage) from published render.
Also look Alinghi’s D35 for comparison in that area here

What I've heard is that the last 5 feet of the hull will be bolted on so the whole thing can fit in a 40 feet container.
That's probably why the back look like that…
That seems reasonable, that´s why I wrote "at this stage"
