America’s Cup waters. A first benchmark. What have the teams learned in Naples?
Andy and Shona hear from the sailors after the final day of the Naples preliminary regatta, as the teams test themselves on the waters that will host next year’s America’s Cup.
From boat speed and split-second decisions to trust and communication under pressure, this AC40 weekend offered plenty to take into the next stage of the campaign. But how much will those lessons matter when the racing moves to the AC75s?

That Naples has the ability to deliver.
More venues are needed that do deliver & Inspire as well.
AC 40 is a work horse.
But does it tell you anything about the AC 75 boat. It's design upgrades to control & information displays. Reliability. The envelopes of design, performance or even the crew's maximum output on the boat. No.
Great AC 40 this year. But that work horse is going to need a serious upgrade in the future. This will fade fast into the rear view mirror. 7 months is going to fly bye.
Next Question is all about the AC 75 & how it flies. Great video, good input well produced. Deserve more likes clicks , and comments. Appreciate the Work. Thank you.
