"You do wake up sometimes with an idea in your head. Something that just comes out of nowhere."

American Magic Principal Designer Marcelino Botin fosters a design environment that encourages creativity, change and continuous improvement. An America's Cup veteran, Marcelino is now applying the formidable collective experience of his design group to the groundbreaking AC75.

Flight Controller Andrew Campbell and the sailors onboard DEFIANT, aided by a team of tireless boatbuilders and shore crew, work to unleash the full potential of that design work for the U.S. Challenger for the 36th America's Cup.
