Square.


Imagine a square box (90' x 90') as your boat slip... pretty cool . uh? Well, Mr. Ellison must have one of those; his new ACC Trimaran is 90' long by 90' wide ,under the command of Russell Coutts for the next ACC campaign. We think it is a great idea to have multi hulls on the Cup since even though the match race battle is not as good as it is with mono hulls only, the real racers are the only one who understand how a match race goes while most of the spectators do not have a clue about sailing, but adrenaline, speed and crashes are enjoyed by everybody (ask any NASCAR fan) and exactly there is where the big tri's come into play. If we want our sport / lifestyle grows or at least stops dying, we need the multis.
