Artemis Racing debuts full scale AC72 wing
The culmination of more than 35,000 man hours and a tremendous amount
of hard work on the part of the entire team came to fruition today when
Artemis Racing sailed with the team’s first AC72 wing.
While the Defender and other Challengers for the 34^th America’s Cup
have chosen to train and test elements for the AC72 catamarans using
smaller boats, specifically AC45 and SL33 catamarans, Artemis Racing
opted to build a full size wing from the outset.

“We chose the full scale strategy. Our decision was more time
consuming, but it allows us to learn how to handle this powerful wing.
Before performance, there is the safety of our team. San Francisco Bay
in July and August is an unforgiving place” said CEO Paul Cayard.
Towering more than 13 stories high, the AC72 wing is a pure work of
art. The 40 metre high structure, predominantly built of carbon fibre,
measures 260 square meters yet weighs just over one tonne.
“It was a team effort. It was amazing to see the wing out on the
water. It looks great, but at the same time threatening. We will be
going through a series of structural tests in the next few days,” said
Principal Designer Juan Kouyoumdjian.
This is Artemis Racing’s first entry to the America’s Cup.
