Seriously? R u fucking with me?

The other side means: I want to see the leeward side! You know, the power side?

Not the Port side!

JFC...









Will it ever end?
Being a Dick when people are trying to help you is more of an insult to yourself than what ever you say about others.

Go and watch the fckg video yourself….. Even the title pic shows the leeward side!

^Thanks, but you didn't have to.

Next time I'll use more purple.


AM's main is looking good. I was struck by how flat the windward side was. Seems like the flattest I've seen but I'm really not paying that close attention...

Nice catch…. The AC40’s may be delivered soon.
Yes, it's either that and/or else they will be getting ready for moving Patriot to Barcelona soon? I forget the dates they are required to be in B for during '23.

It seems unlikely they will give up on developing Patriot but I guess we'll see; yes, interesting comment.

Remember Pietro Pinucci?
He made some technically interesting videos during AC36 with his partner Vittorio d'Albertas (who BTW is still doing this for AC37, but only in Italian)
Well, Pietro is now part of AM's sail design team - battens and leech control.
Not only that, but it appears AM really raided LRPP since they also got CFD guru Mario Caponnetto, Giorgio Provinciali (VPP) and Davide Tagliapietra (structures)
These were all LRPP veterans, so I wonder what's behind this and how it was received by Max

I think Max had communicated a concerted desire to bring more youth into the sailing side, do you think he wanted the same for the other functions? Is it possible they weren't going to be brought back? Or, did they drag their heels and lose these guys and Fischer also? The LEQ12 program at least doesn't seem to have suffered.
