Not near as difficult as 8-1, but Spithill did just that in 2013 to beat Team NZ in San Francisco 9-8. So I'm keeping the champagne firmly corked until the racing is over.
That was down to Ainslie!

I'm still trying to figure out how these boats can travel up to four times faster than the wind upwind and downwind. Such amazing spectacle. Bring on 2025!
Does anyone know who actually designed the AC75 concept?
I read that teams of engineers worked out all the details, together and separately, and one company made the mechanics/hydraulics for the center lifting mechanism.
But I can't find original design credits.
Well that explains a lotI believe it was Dan Bernasconi and Guillaume Verdier (designers for Team NZ)
