  • Introduction to Video Content
  • In this video, we join Diego Torado, the AC Forty boat captain at Alinghi Red Bull Racing, as they set sail in Jeddah for the America's Cup. The team arrived in Jeddah nine days ago and have been busy preparing both the boats and the base. After five days of work, the boats were ready to hit the water. Today was their first day of sailing in Jeddah, and it was a resounding success. The weather was perfect, with nice wind and a fantastic location. At its peak, they saw around forty knots of wind. Jeddah provides a great sailing area, with a nice breeze and warm water. During the day, they had a few stops to check on the boats, but no major issues were found. The team prefers to be cautious and ensure everything is in working order after the boat was disassembled and reassembled during delivery. They finished the day with some racing, with both teams performing well and pushing each other. It was a great day for everyone involved. The team will be training in Jeddah for another week before the America's Cup begins.
