INEOS Team UK have released a video which has some brief sequences of their first AC75 shown foiling.

It would seem that the AC75 went sailing on October 15 (the day before this video was posted). The boat is sailing on a single foil confirming that she is sailing unassisted/or towed.

In the clear close up image released by the team, the hulls aerodynamic orientation is quite apparent, and the complete package of hull foil and rig gives a different perception than the hull only views that have been released previously.
