  • BMW ORACLE Racing Wins 33Rd America's Cup
    Contact: Stacy Morris 201-594-3360 (office) 201-370-5134 (cell) [email protected] BMW ORACLE Racing wins 33rd America’s Cup. The US- Challenger defeats the Defender 2 to 0. Munich/ Valencia. The BMW ORACLE Racing team has won the 33rd America’s Cup, dethroning Swiss holder Alinghi. The challenger’s spectacular trimaran “USA 17”, with its futuristic 68-metre wing sail, defeated the catamaran “Alinghi 5” in the waters off Valencia on the second day to record the decisive second win. The best-of-three match ended 2-0 in favour of the US crew of owner Larry Ellison. This Deed of Gift series saw the holder and challenger go head to head in a straight duel. “Congratulations to Larry Ellison and his whole crew!” said Ian Robertson, BMW AG Board Member for Sales and Marketing. “The goal we have all been workingtowards for over two and a half years has now been achieved. This has been a fantastic performance by the whole team. As Technology Partner, we have also made a successful contribution to winning the world’s most prestigious sporting trophy. We have positioned BMW as a competent partner in competitive sailing and have firmly established the transfer of technology in the America’s Cup. On the construction side, BMW engineers have set new benchmarks for intelligent lightweight design. Added to which, among the relevant target group, BMW is the highest-profile brand in competitive sailing." With 159 years of history, the America’s Cup is the world’s oldest sporting competition and brings together the best professional sailors, yacht designers and boat builders of their generation in the pursuit of perfection.

    Exhibit AA BMW ORACLE Racing Page 1 of 2 z Overview z Current z Archive z Results z Live Ticker z Social Networks 05.05.2008 CET BMW ORACLE Racing partners with VPLP in design of AC Multihull. The leading French multihull design firm of Van Peteghem / Lauriot Prévost (VPLP) are working with BMW ORACLE Racing’s design team in developing its new mulithull boat for the America’s Cup Deed of Gift match, the team confirmed today. Firm principals Vincent Lauriot Prévost and Marc Van Peteghem are integrated with the BMW ORACLE Racing core design team for the project. VPLP are the lead designers in conjunction with the BMW ORACLE Racing team, led by design coordinator Mike Drummond. BMW ORACLE Racing’s Michel Kermarec heads up the performance prediction and appendage design. “We are enjoying working with and learning from the vast experience of VPLP in multihulls,” Drummond said. “The French multihull community, in general, are leaders in these yachts and we are benefiting greatly. When we first looked at a multihull in the event of a Deed of Gift challenge, we were impressed with the record of the Groupama series of racing multihulls. Franck Cammas and VPLP designed yachts have been breaking speed records and leading this field, so VPLP was the natural choice.” Vincent Lauriot Prévost affirmed, “We are delighted to have been chosen by BMW ORACLE Racing to design the new multihull for the 33rd America’s Cup. To be able to integrate our expertise in high performance multihull design with the experienced BMW ORACLE Racing design team, as well as with the construction team in the United States, is exciting and inspiring for VPLP.

  • The Foil Alphabet
    © Fred Monsonnec for the blog “Foilers!” - https://foils.wordpress.com/ 04/04/2015 The foil alphabet This is the English version of a French article, published in October 2014 on the blog "Foilers". This translation would not have been possible without the help of my friend Nicholas Waller, an independent English teacher and translator with a website at http://www.centpourcentanglais.com (traducteur français-anglais et prof d’anglais indépendant). Open your books, no talking. Repeat after me: C, E, J, L, O, S, T, U, V, Y are the different types of foils that currently exist. Well done! In 2008 I wrote an article about the two main families of hydrofoils, “V-foils and T-foils". Since that article, new letters have emerged or come into wider use. It is now time to update the foil alphabet! Especially since it’s always possible for new forms to appear. After a century of development, we are really in the "Age of the Hydrofoil." You, over there, at the back of the classroom near the radiator, do you want to take off later? Well, joking aside, I’m playing the professor without being one (or an engineer) and this article certainly contains errors, so all comments are welcome. For each type of foil, you will find in this article: . A little history . Some examples of boats equipped with that kind of foil (for hydrofoils, foilers and foil-assisted multihulls, see my definitions in the appendices at the end of this article) . A diagram. I try to show the forces generated: Lift and lateral resistance (resistance to leeway, or lateral plane).

  • The Physics of Sailing
    The Physics of Sailing Ryan M. Wilson JILA and Department of Physics, University of Colorado, Boulder, Colorado 80309-0440, USA (Dated: February 7, 2010) We present a review of the physical phenomena that govern the motion of a sailing yacht. Motion is determined by force, and the forces on a sailing yacht depend on the interactions of the hull and keel of the yacht with the water and on the interactions of the sail or sails of the yacht with the air. We discuss these interactions from the perspective of fluid dynamics, governed ultimately by the Navier-Stokes equation, and show how forces such as lift and drag are achieved by the relative motion of a viscous fluid around a body. Additionally, we discuss phenomena that are exclusive to sailing yacht geometries. I.

Tide Tables 17 Boat sales tax bill expected to give state a boost BY BETH FEINSTEIN-BARTL Waterfront News Writer A bill with the potential to create more jobs in the marine industry and drive boat sales revenue into the state is await- ing Florida Gov. Charlie Crist’s signature. Marine industry executives and organizations are opti- mistic about it becoming law. Crist, who’s voiced past sup- port, has until June 1 to approve the bill. If so, it then becomes effective on July 1. The boating provision is one of 34 measures in the Jobs for Florida Bill (CS/SB-1752). The marine portion keeps the sales and use tax at 6 percent but places a first-ever cap of $18,000 on boat buys — regardless of size and price tag. The Florida Yacht Brokers Association and the Marine Industries Association of South Florida label the legislation as “landmark.” “It’s a win-win-win,” said Jeff Erdmann, legislative committee chair for the Florida Yacht Brokers Association. “It will boost revenue for the state, boost sales and boost jobs and services for people who work on boats.” Photo Courtesy/OFFSHORE EVENTS Currently, an FYBA study shows 63.4 percent of the boats sold by Florida brokers and dealers did not pay any Open ocean racing sales tax, meaning the vessels were sold outside Florida The Third Annual Sunny Isles Beach Offshore Powerboat Challenge: This year’s event weekend takes place June 10-13 off Sunny Isles Beach.
