Is there any place I can ride an America’s Cup class hydrofoil catamaran (AC75 type?)

Is there any place I can ride an America’s Cup class hydrofoil catamaran (AC75 type?) - Young lady typing on keyboard of laptop in living room

Where, if anywhere, can I get a ride an America’s Cup class hydrofoil catamaran (AC75 type?)

Edit: Oops, yes I meant the AC50 type.



Best Answer

Given what this page says about AC75 class yachts:

The AC75 (America's Cup 75 class) is a 75-ft monohull sailboat class, governing the construction and operation of the yachts to be used in the 2021 America's Cup. Conceptual graphics were proposed by the defender on 20 November 2017, and the full Class Rule rule was published on 29 March 2018

I doubt that any yachts have yet been built that meet that spec.

Now you may be able to find AC50 yachts (previous AC generation) that give rides but I couldn't find any with a quick google.

Finally I think you also may be confusing types. The AC50 is a catamaran, while the AC75 is (going to be) a monohull.
