AMERICA´S CUP 2017
35 AC. Emirates Team New Zealand sails for the first time in Bermuda with
its revolutionary catamaran.
The Emirates New
Zeland team has a hydraulic system in which the winches are replaced by
bicycles, an innovative system in which sailors are observed pedaling on top of
the boat, this system transfers power to the candle adjustment system, with
That by using the legs you can transfer more energy more consistently and you
can keep longer pedaling time and generate more power. Other equipment also
tested this system but finally the only equipment that would use this system
will be the Emirate. We will see who will be the winner.

Vestas are returning to the Volvo Ocean Race for a second consecutive edition, after launching their 2017-18 campaign in partnership with 11th Hour Racing at simultaneous events in Newport, Rhode Island and Aarhus – where it was also announced that the fleet will make a ‘fly by’ of the Danish city on the final leg.
Vestas 11th Hour Racing will be led by the American duo of Charlie Enright and Mark Towill. The team are the fourth to announce for the upcoming edition, which begins on 22 October, and they will use the race to promote a sustainability message around the world.
Enright and Towill had their first Volvo Ocean Race experience as skipper and Team Director of Team Alvimedica in 2014-15.
“We’re working hard on building a competitive team ahead of the race, and have a couple of transatlantic sailings lined up for April and May.”
The teams will depart Alicante on 22 October and race 45,000 nautical miles around the world with stops at Lisbon, Cape Town, Melbourne, Hong Kong, Guangzhou, Auckland, Itajaí, Newport, Cardiff and Gothenburg before the finish in The Hague.
The One Design concept has reduced the need for campaigns to announce as early as in previous editions and there is no reason why a campaign getting off the ground this summer can’t go on and win the trophy.
