America’s Cup: Sail design impressions

Ask a sail designer what they saw during the America’s Cup World Series and you won’t be surprised by their answer – sails of course! JB Braun, North Sail’s Director of Design and Engineering is a six-time Cup veteran and one of the most respected sail designers in the world. He, like many of us, was glued to his screen last week to watch the action unfold on the water in Auckland.

JB shares his unique perspective on this edition of the Cup and how the North-powered engine above deck helps the AC75s fly.
