After a few season of coming to grips with our Mumm 36 racing yacht and optimising her sail plan we were finally in a positions to win races. A stripped out racing yacht like a Mumm 36 needs to be sailed on the limit at all times to keep you in races against boats with more forgiving IRC ratings. For the team at Bottom Up Boats it more often than not it came down to the crew work if you wanted to separate yourself from the chasing pack. One of the most magical memories from our time on the Mumm 36 was this peel from the Code Zero to the A-Sail on a short course race in the season ending frosties regatta at Strangford Lough Yacht club. This slick transition with the crew working in complete harmony allowed the team on GTR to maintain top speed during the second to last mark round which help give them the race win by less than 10 seconds. If you would like to learn more about how the crew on GTR perfected this type of sail change take a look at the full video to hear more about what was going on board to make for the perfect mark round and peel. https://youtu.be/Qxr-gVgsjW0?si=-YvRmoOkJcoeIkya

Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli were back in their LEQ12 with switched foils for the ultimate A/B testing with the team running Wings 1 and Wing 3 ahead of the introduction of what they call their “last card” Wing 04 in the coming weeks. Also featuring were some changes to the mainsail clew on their big M1 mainsail with different attachments noticed between skins. Jimmy Spithill and Francesco Bruni skippered today on a short session affected by the swell and a sensor issue that eventually curtailed the day. #AC37Recon #Shorts SUBSCRIBE to the official America's Cup channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/americascup Like America’s Cup On Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/americascup Follow America’s Cup On Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/americascup Follow America’s Cup On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/americascup Stay up to date with the America’s Cup newsletter: https://www.americascup.com/en/newsletter The 37th America's Cup will be Defended in Barcelona by four-time America's Cup winner, the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron represented by their team, Emirates Team New Zealand. #AmericasCup #AC37 #Barcelona2024
