Today marks the start of the most influential sailing competition on the globe. Whether you're a sailing enthusiast or a tech aficionado, the #AmericasCup is an event you can't miss.
As one of the world's oldest sporting events, founded in 1851, the America's Cup stands as a testament to the evolution of technology over nearly two centuries. This year's competition showcases 75-foot yachts reaching speeds over 50 knots (>90 km/h), a feat once deemed impossible for wind-powered vessels. These breakthroughs are made possible by the once-controversial #hydrofoils.
A little over a decade ago, the introduction of hydrofoils sparked intense debate within the sailing community. It’s human nature to resist the unfamiliar, but as we kick off the 37th America's Cup, it’s clear that these high-tech 'space-ships' are not only here to stay—they’re shaping the future of sailing.
For those in my network who may not be sailors but appreciate cutting-edge innovation, this is your chance to witness the incredible fusion of tradition and technology. Don't miss out on this spectacular event!
The event can be watched on YouTube or on the Americas Cup website.
