While we feel that we echo most sailor's sentiment toward the AC when we say that we're not really into the business, ego trips, legal wrangling, and commercialism of it all, but we are completely enthralled with the technology, racing, and great people that make up the teams. Although not necessarily new, the technology and techniques used to build and repair the solid sails of the 45s, and later down the road the 72s, are quite intriguing. Check out these shots of re-covering the wing from Artemis Racing's FB Page.

And here's a little vid from Green Com that I did during the ACWS in San Diego. Check out ironing the wing.
