Was sailing Touche' on Pensacola Bay yesterday afternoon after the sea breeze filled in. The New York Yacht Club's AC40, American Magic, was on the bay practicing. American Magic and chase boats made a couple of passes near us. One was about 200 yards off our stern.
Breeze was about 10-11 knots. They were using one of their larger headsails. It is REALLY fast! Here's pics I snagged as it "flew" by. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1-jyFZ85piLSD5NcuGp9yoJSaEJArBYRo?usp=share_link Here's the link to the team's recap of the day. Dang it! Touche' didn't make the edit. :( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WqX-J8CCJl4 -- Dennis C. Touche' 35-1 #83 Mandeville, LA
