I am more excited about the “C” class than the America’s Cup catamarans. Of course the America’s Cup ultimately sucks all of the oxygen out of the room; but the “C” class is where the fun is. I will be watching to see if the interest spreads to other countries.
The regatta a few years ago in Newport, had many of the America’s Cup sailors and designers scrambling to learn what they could about catamarans and solid wings. There was a lot of conversation at the time for the potential of the Cup influence to ruin the “C” class. I think many in the class breathed a sign of relief when the AC group moved on.
