  • Is it possible to have a speed higher than the speed of the wind?

  • @Mauromoustakos its call and engine

  • @Mauromoustakos its called and engine

  • @Mauromoustakos yes it is. As the boat moves through the water, it harness the power of the wind, AND the power of the air it is moving through with it's own speed, so it can indeed travel faster than the wind. Amazing eh! Wiki 'relative wind' for more info.

  • @UnkleSi -- Many thanks for the explanation.

  • To all of you who think this is "sketchy", what do you think a sail is? It's a cloth wing. This isn't the first iteration of a wing in the AC either.

  • let me guess

    this was put up in boston or new york

  • um...wow...that's beautiful...

    love that helm atop that...catwalk? wing? whatever...

  • It's a BMW , it MUST be fast :)

  • now that's what you call flying the hull.

  • Now make it run on hydrofoils!

  • @surfcello

    im not sure if they are allowed to do that for america's cup, but it would be a great indeed.

  • @sx5r Why not? They let this boat sail without sails...

  • @sx5r The winner of the cup decides the next races rules I think.

  • Let Her Fly!! We got our Cup Back!!
