36th America's Cup: Different Design Approaches
The design rule for the 36th America's Cup is the most audacious yet: a 75ft foiling monohull that will race mostly in flight at four times true wind speed, up to 50 knots.

Sailboat Design Evolution
Design Dilemmas. At the risk of oversimplification, since the fiberglass era began in the late 1940s and '50s, the design of midsize and full-size yachts has transitioned from the Cruising Club of America rules, which favored all-around boats (racers had to have comfortable interiors) with moderate beam and long overhangs, to a succession of racing rules such as the IOR, IMS and IRC.
