This probably will be the last to be published Plan in this category of the America Cup.
The original drawings started 1996, after the issue of some models magazines in France, and all the nights watching America Cup in TV at 1.30 in the night !!! very good “old times”.
Today the plan I drawn myself, is adapted to the AC120 Class within the respect of the Rules.
Features : DSPL 4500g with little ballast and can go up to 4770g as designed and maintaining the water lines.
Low PC at 4500g for better performances with low wind. Lower Wet area and reduced draft.
Dual COA showing range of displacement.
Ballast can be adjusted as fonction of weather conditions.
To fullfil the Rules I will make my own 18mm plywood tank that will serve also for other models as M class and Jclass.
Front side will be a 6mm glass and the back side will be plywood white painted
