Alinghi Red Bull Racing rounded out a very productive week in Barcelona with a superb sailing session in a median of 10 knots of breeze and flat water, concentrating on boat handling and flying styles in their AC75 ‘BoatZero.’ • Speaking afterwards, Maxime Bachelin was animated about the manoeuvres today saying: “Yeah, we tried different ride heights to feel a bit better the boat. Sometimes we lowered the ride height to have more grip on the water to do a tight turn and sometimes a bit higher to get the speed because we’re always trying to do the best manoeuvre and sometimes as well, we put two boards in the water to have more grip and today was the perfect day to do that.” • Section 41. Reconnaissance • a) As a campaign cost reduction measure, COR/D has mutually agreed to cooperatively implement a centralised reconnaissance programme for all teams for the reconnaissance of all Competitors’ AC75 Yachts, AC40 Yachts and LEQ12 yachts including both on-land and on-water imagery (the “Joint Recon Programme”). • b) Each team is assigned a two-person Recon Unit to follow their every on-water move, but it's not that simple. The cameras are supplied and identical for all Recon Units. Drones are not allowed, and they can't get that close, plus following a boat and keeping a camera steady at 45 knots isn't that easy to begin with. • c) A three minute interview follows each on water day, and teams must answer the Recon Unit's questions while trying not to give too much away. It's a raw, unedited view of the never before seen behind-the-scenes development of a team and their boat to win the oldest trophy in international sports. • #AC37Recon #AmericasCup #Barcelona2024
