LONDON (Reuters) - SailGP crews will be grappling with new higher-speed "T-foils" on their F50 catamarans for the first time in Auckland at the weekend, after a successful training outing on Monday.

The prestigious Foil Bay of Islands event returns for 2025 with an epic program, new sponsors, and a special memorial race ...

Untangling a sail which was wrapped around a foil was a major task With winds of about 50mph (80km/h) and 16ft (5m) waves, keeping the boat in one piece has sometimes been a challenge in itself.

A new venue and new technology will add an element of uncertainty to the second round of the SailGP which will be raced on Auckland’s Waitemata Harbour.
