The 36th America’s Cup of Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli narrated through the extraordinary photos of Carlo Borlenghi. Not just an extraordinary flying boat, but a team, its racing images, life behind the scenes at the Auckland and Cagliari bases and the story of the design and construction of Luna Rossa.

GUIDO MEDA

"We loved a boat once again. In fact we loved a carbon boat that flies. Which is different. This Cup and this Luna Rossa have proved that not even extreme technology can undermine the magic that binds men to boats as if they were living beings. It has always been like that. It has always been the essence of sailing and the America’s Cup."

GIAN LUCA PASINI

"This story frequently repeats “once upon a time” because, in almost forty years of Italian attempts at the America’s Cup, this was when the Italians came closest to winning."

STEFANO VEGLIANI

"The AC75 had to be fast in maneuvering, precisely to return to the tacking duels in match race regattas. The result was fully achieved."
