The basic concept of the America’s Cup is that the Defender is challenged by one or several challengers, who agree on the place, the boat and the type of races.

In the more or less recent history of the Cup, this has not always been easy, and the decisions have often been taken by a judge! All the competitors in the 35th America’s Cup – with the notable exception of the New Zealanders – have agreed on the framework for the 36th and 37th editions. The next America’s Cups should therefore take place in 2019 and 2021, and the winner will chose the location. They will be raced on catamarans with foils and rigid wing sails.
Finally, all this is in theory, because if Emirates Team New Zealand wins, this protocol will in all probability collapse!
