He\u2019s simply smart, creative, a bit nuts and works extremely hard.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-xhhu0i e2kc3sl0\">Verdier, 47, is also putting his imprint on the future of sailing. He has been commissioned to lead the design of the next generation of yachts for the\u00a0<a class=\"css-1g7m0tk\" title=\"\" href=\"http:\/\/www.volvooceanrace.com\/en\/home.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Volvo Ocean Race<\/a>\u00a0and is one of the central figures behind the radical\u00a0<a class=\"css-1g7m0tk\" title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.americascup.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">new America\u2019s Cup class<\/a>\u00a0that was revealed in November: a\u00a0<a class=\"css-1g7m0tk\" title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.americascup.com\/en\/news\/14_THE-AMERICA-S-CUP-CLASS-AC75-BOAT-CONCEPT-REVEALED.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">75-foot foiling monohull without a traditional keel<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-xhhu0i e2kc3sl0\">\u201cHe\u2019s covered an incredible range of boats,\u201d said Dan Bernasconi, design coordinator for Team New Zealand. \u201cThe boats he\u2019s designed are at the leading edge, both in multihulls and monohulls.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"css-18sbwfn StoryBodyCompanionColumn\">\n<div class=\"css-4w7y5l\">\n<p class=\"css-xhhu0i e2kc3sl0\">He is also at the leading edge both in offshore racing in often extreme conditions and, in the case of the America\u2019s Cup, in inshore racing in much more controlled environments. Clearly, Verdier is not only a serious naval architect, but also a serious multitasker.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-xhhu0i e2kc3sl0\">\u201cMy wife will say it\u2019s too much,\u201d Verdier said last week from Auckland, New Zealand. \u201cI work a lot of hours, and I\u2019m working from home, so that helps me. I\u2019m very dedicated to the work, and the way I do it is if you look closely, I don\u2019t do so many boats per year. I do maybe three or four, but I don\u2019t do 20.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>He also, as he makes clear, gets plenty of help from his co-workers in France and elsewhere. One of their masterpieces is LDV Comanche, the record-breaking 100-foot super maxi yacht that is again one of the big favorites to win the Sydney Hobart Race, this time under its very new owner, Jim Cooney of Australia.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"css-18sbwfn StoryBodyCompanionColumn\">\n<div class=\"css-4w7y5l\">\n<p class=\"css-xhhu0i e2kc3sl0\">Comanche took line honors in 2015 in \u201cthe Hobart,\u201d the shorthand Australians use for the annual spectacle, which begins the day after Christmas in Sydney Harbor. It is a 628-nautical-mile sprint south that can turn nasty, even deadly, with the unpredictable weather patterns generated by the relatively shallow Bass Strait that separates Tasmania from the Australian mainland.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-xhhu0i e2kc3sl0\">Verdier and his small team designed Comanche in 2013 and 2014 on a tight deadline with their frequent collaborators, the French firm\u00a0<a class=\"css-1g7m0tk\" title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/vplp.fr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">VPLP<\/a>. The yacht\u2019s original owners were the American tech tycoon Jim Clark, a co-founder of Netscape, and Kristy Hinze-Clark, his Australian wife. They wanted an avant-garde boat capable of setting ocean speed records and, in a nod to Hinze-Clark\u2019s roots, winning the Hobart.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-xhhu0i e2kc3sl0\">It delivered on both counts. Comanche holds the trans-Atlantic and Transpac records for monohulls. Though the Clarks, wary of the cost, did not enter Comanche in the Hobart in 2016, the maxi is now expected to be a more regular presence in the wake of Cooney\u2019s purchase on Dec. 14.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-xhhu0i e2kc3sl0\">Comanche is nicknamed \u201cthe aircraft carrier\u201d because of its exceptionally wide beam. At the stern, it is nearly double the width of some of its chief competitors, including Wild Oats XI, the super maxi owned by the Oatley family that has taken line honors eight times in the Hobart and is expected to start again this year despite a\u00a0<a class=\"css-1g7m0tk\" title=\"\" href=\"http:\/\/www.smh.com.au\/sport\/sailing\/wild-oats-struck-by-lightning-in-race-against-time-for-sydney-to-hobart-20171219-h07ja5.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">lightning strike on its mast<\/a>\u00a0on Dec. 17.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-xhhu0i e2kc3sl0\">\u201cIn design, it took us 25,000 hours,\u201d Verdier said of Comanche. \u201cIf you look at the Volvo project that we are doing now, it\u2019s probably 15,000 hours.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-xhhu0i e2kc3sl0\">The hours have continued to pile up with Verdier committed to many high-profile projects \u2014 none more visible than the 36th America\u2019s Cup, scheduled for 2021.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"css-18sbwfn StoryBodyCompanionColumn\">\n<div class=\"css-4w7y5l\">\n<p class=\"css-xhhu0i e2kc3sl0\">Verdier joined Team New Zealand before the 2013 Cup in San Francisco, where the Kiwis blew an 8-1 lead before losing, 9-8, to the defender Oracle Team USA.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-xhhu0i e2kc3sl0\">Four years later in Bermuda, Team New Zealand held firm with a new and younger crew, routing Oracle, 7-1. Both those Cups were contested in foiling catamarans, and Verdier focused on the key area of foil design for 2017. But with Team New Zealand and its Italian challenger of record, Luna Rossa, committed to returning to monohulls for 2021, there was concern in the Cup community that the venerable event was taking a step backward in design and adrenaline.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-xhhu0i e2kc3sl0\">No one feels that way any longer. The proposed new boat looks undeniably futuristic and is expected to be the fastest monohull ever used in the Cup. Instead of a keel to provide stability, it has twin canting ballasted T-foils that have veteran sailors both excited and wary about the challenge of handling it, particularly when it is not hydrofoiling.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3408\" style=\"width: 685px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3408\" class=\"wp-image-3408 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.guillaumeverdier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/AC75-5.jpg\" alt=\"AC75\" width=\"675\" height=\"380\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3408\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">@Team New Zeland<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"css-18sbwfn StoryBodyCompanionColumn\">\n<div class=\"css-4w7y5l\">\n<p class=\"css-xhhu0i e2kc3sl0\">\u201cI\u2019m having trouble connecting the dots in my simple mind,\u201d said Iain Murray, the former America\u2019s Cup regatta director and skipper who will be back aboard Wild Oats XI for the Hobart race. \u201cI do a lot of sailing on these 70- to 100-foot monohulls. I know how fast they go, and I know how fast catamarans have to be going to get onto the foils. They basically need to be doing 15 knots, and I know what it takes for Wild Oats, which is a 100-footer, to do 15 knots.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-xhhu0i e2kc3sl0\">\u201cI\u2019m sure once the new boat is on the foils with stability, it will be great. It\u2019s just getting on and off the foils is the part I\u2019m struggling with.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-xhhu0i e2kc3sl0\">Verdier and Bernasconi say that they have done their \u201chomework\u201d but agree that the proposal is radical.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"css-18sbwfn StoryBodyCompanionColumn\">\n<div class=\"css-4w7y5l\">\n<p class=\"css-xhhu0i e2kc3sl0\">\u201cIf we went out one afternoon and saw one of those foiling down the harbor, having never seen one before, it would definitely be like, \u2018What the hell is that?\u2019\u201d Bernasconi said. \u201cAnd so to actually say that\u2019s going to be the next America\u2019s Cup boat, yeah, it is radical.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-xhhu0i e2kc3sl0\">Is Verdier 100 percent certain it will work?<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-xhhu0i e2kc3sl0\">\u201cI\u2019m sure if there are things that are not going to work, we will fix it with the time we have,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-xhhu0i e2kc3sl0\">Bernasconi says the boat should foil at 9 knots of wind speed and be capable of hydrofoiling for an entire Cup race in the right conditions. It is still in the conceptual phase: the class rule will not be finalized until March. But before Team New Zealand won the Cup, Verdier said he had already come up with a similar design for a 38-foot monohull for a private client in New Zealand who was brought to Verdier by Ray Davies, a longtime Team New Zealand sailor.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-xhhu0i e2kc3sl0\">The initial drawing for that project still had a keel.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-xhhu0i e2kc3sl0\">\u201cWe sat together with the client, and Ray said, \u2018Hey, come on! After all we\u2019ve learned, you\u2019ve got to get rid of this keel. It\u2019s looking draggy to have so much in the water,\u2019\u201d Verdier said. \u201cAnd I said, \u2018Yes, but Ray, it\u2019s going to capsize too easily. We need some minimum stability here.\u2019 \u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-xhhu0i e2kc3sl0\">The solution was to propose putting the weight in the foils instead.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-xhhu0i e2kc3sl0\">\u201cThat is completely counterintuitive because the foil is a lifting surface, so why put lead in a lifting surface?\u201d Verdier said. \u201cWe need some stability before we start flying, so we make the foils like canting keels. This kind of boat existed in the past, with twin keels, so I said, \u2018Let\u2019s make a kind of twin keel but with foils, not too heavy, just enough so we can right it up at 90 degrees when we cant it the correct way.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-xhhu0i e2kc3sl0\">That 38-footer has yet to be built, but at the end of a very big year for Verdier, he and Bernasconi and Team New Zealand will soon be building a much bigger version with much more at stake.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-xhhu0i e2kc3sl0\">\u201cClearly, Guillaume and Dan are brilliant guys,\u201d Murray said. \u201cWhether it\u2019s Comanche or any of these boats, Guillaume hasn\u2019t had too many bad ones. So I think we\u2019ve just got to wait and see. Many times in the past, people have questioned what they\u2019ve done, and they\u2019ve proven themselves.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2017\/12\/24\/sports\/sailing\/guillaume-verdier-yacht-racing.html\">@nytimes.com<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Rolex Sydney Hobart Race, the last major yacht race of 2017, is set to begin on Tuesday, and this already has been Guillaume Verdier\u2019s year.
