A moment of joy and deep pride for ariane de rothschild and all the members of the five. The new ultim from gitana stable sports radical foils and rudders that showcase a truly innovative approach by the team and designer guilluame verdier. French sailing team gitana has announced the launch of the new maxi edmond de rothschild maxi offshore racing trimaran gitana 18 A redesigned monocoque structure for cockpit integration unlike gitana 17, the new maxi edmond de rothschild integrates the cockpit and deckhouse into the very structure of the central hull To increase rigidity, limit parasitic movements and offer greater protection Gitana 18, the new maxi edmond de rothschild, looked less like a conventional ocean racer and more like a creature shaped for another realm
The long, flat underbodies, the powerful rig, the extended fairings and the sculpted appendages all hinted at a machine designed to fly rather than sail.
