Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the profound evolution of racing yacht design over a period of nearly eight decades, from the America's victory in 1851 to the development of the Shamrock IV, a radical challenger in 1920. The author traces the transformation of these vessels from machines built to exp…loit loopholes in racing rules, to finely tuned and balanced boats designed for both speed and structural integrity. The book explores the interplay between the design of the hull, the sail area, and the ratio of wetted surface to sail area, demonstrating how each element contributes to the overall performance of the yacht. Through meticulous research and engaging prose, this book offers a comprehensive insight into the science behind the sport of yacht racing, showcasing the ingenuity of designers and the relentless pursuit of speed and efficiency in the pursuit of victory.
