[quote=dmgbear55]The IMOCA 60 is more or less the state of the art in high performance monohulls, so we are getting a bigger and likely very similar boat with a crew to run it. The devil is in the details of the design rules. Canting keels need hydraulics so maybe the bikes will be back, since in match racing speed of maneuvers is of the essence. Not to mention I think we have seen that arm grinding is not as powerful and sustainable as pumping pedals, that is unless they rule it out. But this is something the Kiwis now know works pretty well. Then adding in that they still have hands free to do something else, like manage control features.
Main thing is to hope that they let us watch on YouTube again. If they don't then I won't be following this next round.[/quote]
