Quick question...IACC Numbers/Spec

Anyone got a set of ballpark numbers for a recent America's Cup Class boat?

Thanks in advance!

I cant supply the exact figures you wanted but here are some of SUI-64 (relatively recent)...
SUI 64
LOA: 25 m
LWL: 18 m
Beam: 4 m
Draft: 4 m
Sail Area (upwind): 350 m2 – (downwind): 690 m2.
Displacement: 25 tons.


Then, on ETNZ's website this is what they give as approximate numbers for an ACC design...

LOA-24m
LWL-18m
Draft-4.1m
Beam 4.5m
Mast Height-32.5m
SA-upwind-320 sq. m
downwind-480 sq. m

Weight
Hull and fittings- 3 tonnes
Rig-1 tonne
keel(fin)-1 tonne
bulb-19 tonnes

hope this helps.
