Neil, I 100% agree with youthese boats without keels, as they are called boats, in my mind, don't sail, they foil or fly. Here's what sailing was all about: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pfzSbsXmlJs Rob Abbott AZURA C 32 - #277 Halifax, N.S. ___ Thanks everyone for supporting this list with your contributions.

Yeah. They are using Pensacola Bay as a training base. I found out a week before I moved Touche' from Pensacola back to Mandeville, LA. https://www.pnj.com/story/news/2018/12/13/americas-cup-sailing-team-american-magic-training-pensacola/2302754002/ I kept my slip in Pensacola and will be trying to move the boat back to Pensacola a few weeks after my ski trip so I might possibly be able to watch them fly around the bay.

Re: Stus-List AC75 boats
The Parker Hannifin Division that I retired from was making aircraft grade axial piston pumps for the last AC boats. We provided electric motor pumps for the practice boats but the race boats are mechanically driven. The hydraulics were for the foils and winches. The grinders are actually driving the two speed pumps.a I retired just before we delivered the race units. The previous division that I worked for also made Electro Hydraulic Servo Valves (EHSV) for formula 1 race cars to control suspension and fuel delivery. Interesting work but I still prefer the old 12 meters and actually having to sail the boat.
