Alinghi

av Alexander Norén

Watched the Alinghi Team sail yesterday. The coolest thing but the wind wasn’t strong enough so they were dissapointed but the boat is amazing. 30 meters long and the mast is 60 meters tall with a sail of 1100 square meters. Crazy!!! The whole operation of training and competing in the America’s Cup can only be compared with the huge and complex Formula One curcuit. There are hundred people in the Alinghi crew and they leave nothing to chance. It’s the most serious training I have seen. I really hope they win the America’s Cup in February.

It was an awesome day and it was great to have the chance to watch these guys close up! I got very motivated to get more serious with my training. Now, I just have to do the work as well!

Back soon!
