| An Open 5.70 class catamaran |
Friday as I headed down to the Book Sale at Fort Mason, I could see all these yachts going across the Bay and decided to take a look. Went down behind all the buildings at Fort Mason and saw all of these catamarans. I guess they were doing practice for the America's Cup World Series races that are happening in two weeks on the San Francisco Bay. I learned that they are using the smaller AC45 class to learn on before going to the AC72 class (which is a lot bigger) for the America's Cup races in 2013. Please tell me if I have misidentified anything as I know jack about sailing other than Dennis Conner and the boats go fast and look cool:
 |
| AC 72 class of Ben Ainslie Racing-England |
 |
| Team China's AC72 |
 |
| Team Luna Rossi (Italy) going by Alcatraz |
 |
| Two Artemis Racing boats and the English entry |
 |
| One of the Team Oracle (USA) entries |
 |
| A Team Luna Rossa chase boat. |
