Capturing the America’s Cup Energy with Barcelona Sailing Day

Sailing Techniques 2024 America’s Cup

During the 2024 America’s Cup, advanced foiling techniques were used to make boats faster and more efficient. With foiling, special wing-like hydrofoils under the boat lift it above the water as it gains speed, reducing drag and allowing the boat to “fly” across the surface.

Once the boat is lifted, balance and control become very different, requiring constant adjustments and teamwork. Real-time data and quick responses were used by crews to keep boats stable and fast. This cutting-edge technique creates an impressive, almost futuristic effect, with boats gliding smoothly above the waves, showcasing one of the biggest advancements in modern sailing.
