    For the America’s Cup of 2024 Defender Emirates Team New Zealand chooses the Catalan city of Barcelona, Spain. The races of the 37th edition will be held between September and October on board the AC75, reconfirmed as the official boat class (with 8 sailors on board instead of the 11 of the previous event). For this edition, the AC75s will be joined by a second boat: the 12-meter One Design foiling monohull (identical for all teams) AC40, with a crew of 4. The AC40 will be used for the two Preliminary Regattas in 2023 (Vilanova i la Geltrú, Spain and Jeddah, Saudi Arabia), and for the Youth and Puig Women's America's Cup to be held in Barcelona in 2024.
