Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli Prototype Day 40 Summary

For the Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli sailors, the mission is very clear in Cagliari at the moment. The design team are now into the final stretch before signing off on the AC75 and going into build in the next few months so the crucial calibration of the now switched foils to validate the direction of travel for the big boat is absolutely key.

In interview afterwards, Round the World race winner and four-time Cup campaigner, Haracio Carabelli, gave his usual insightful interview as Design Co-Ordinator for Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli and he seemed more than pleased with where the team are at and the levels they’re hitting, saying: “I think we’re pretty happy. Just in time, the big boat is coming along in terms of design and all the teams will be closing up final decisions on it so we're pretty happy with what we’ve achieved so far and looking forward for the next month when we will also be coming with new stuff.”

Section 41. Reconnaissance

a) As a campaign cost reduction measure, COR/D has mutually agreed to cooperatively implement a centralised reconnaissance programme for all teams for the reconnaissance of all Competitors’ AC75 Yachts, AC40 Yachts and LEQ12 yachts including both on-land and on-water imagery (the “Joint Recon Programme”).

b) Each team is assigned a two-person Recon Unit to follow their every on-water move, but it's not that simple. The cameras are supplied and identical for all Recon Units. Drones are not allowed, and they can't get that close, plus following a boat and keeping a camera steady at 45 knots isn't that easy to begin with.

c) A three minute interview follows each on water day, and teams must answer the Recon Unit's questions while trying not to give too much away. It's a raw, unedited view of the never before seen behind-the-scenes development of a team and their boat to win the oldest trophy in international sports.
