Racing in both the Youth and Puig Women’s America’s Cup will take place on the world’s most exciting new foiling class – the America’s Cup 40 (AC40). This high-tech vessel is a scaled-down version of the impressive AC75 foiling monohull design used in the America’s Cup. These sleek boats measure 40 feet in length and can foil at over 80 km/h! With a crew of four fixed positions in pod-seats on each side of the hull, each boat is built for speed and agility. Steering is handled by alternating wheels on each side, while control buttons manage the sails and foils for maximum performance.

Both the Youth and Puig Women’s America’s Cup will feature fleet and match racing spanning several thrilling days. The Youth event will kick off alongside the Challenger Selection Series of the 37th America’s Cup, starting on September 26th. For the Women’s America’s Cup, the fleet racing begins October 10th, with the exciting Puig Women’s America’s Cup Final happening alongside the America’s Cup Match later that week. Get ready to witness the exceptional skills of the world’s top female sailors and the rising stars of foiling sailing. It’s going to be an unforgettable spectacle!
