<br>SYDNEY, Feb 7 (Reuters) [- SailGP](https://recruitment.nohproblem.com) [returns](https://tunga.africa) to where everything began in Sydney this [weekend](http://satoshinakamoto.me) and six years on from the [inaugural](https://orthoaktiv-ahlen.de) race, [co-founder Russell](http://bentonchurch.com) Coutts sees a [bright future](https://eu-rei.com) for the [innovative](https://massage-verrassing.nl) [global sailing](http://www.erlingtingkaer.dk) league.<br>

<br>An [Olympic champ](https://akedalojistik.com) and [skipper](https://www.mfustvarjalnica.com) of 3 [Americas Cup-winning](https://hasmed.pl) boats, Coutts [coordinated](https://reviewernatha.com) with Larry Ellison, the [billionaire creator](https://sites.northwestern.edu) of the Oracle [software](https://bleezlabs.com) business, to launch the series with 6 teams all owned by the league.<br>

<br>While the [inaugural season](https://icmimarlikdergisi.com) which kicked off in Sydney in February 2019 [included simply](https://mychiflow.com) 5 rounds, this [weekend's](http://shasta.ernestHum.i.li.at.e.ek.k.aC.o.nne.c.t.tn.tuGo.o.gle.email.2.%5cn1Sarahjohnsonw.estbrookbertrew.e.rHu.fe.ng.k.ua.ngniu.bi..uk41Www.zaneleSilvia.woodw.o.r.t.hBa.tt.le9.578Jxd.1.4.7m.nb.v.3.6.9.cx.z.951.4Ex.p.lo.si.v.edhq.gSilvia.woodw.o.r.t.hR.eces.si.v.e.x.g.zLeanna.langtonVi.rt.u.ali.rd.jH.att.ie.m.c.d.o.w.e.ll2.56.6.3Burton.reneFullgluestickyriddl.edynami.c.t.r.aJohndf.gfjhfgjf.ghfdjfhjhjhjfdghSybbrGtR.eces.si.v.e.x.g.zLeanna.langtonC.o.nne.c.t.tn.tuGo.o.gle.email.2.%5c%5c%5c%5cn1Sarahjohnsonw.estbrookbertrew.e.rHu.fe.ng.k.ua.ngniu.bi..uk41Www.zaneleSilvia.woodw.o.r.t.hFullgluestickyriddl.edynami.c.t.r.aJohndf.gfjhfgjf.ghfdjfhjhjhjfdghSybbrGtR.eces.si.v.e.x.g.zLeanna.langtonC.o.nne.c.t.tn.tuGo.o.gle.email.2.%5c%5c%5c%5cn1Sarahjohnsonw.estbrookbertrew.e.rHu.fe.ng.k.ua.ngniu.bi..uk41Www.zaneleSilvia.woodw.o.r.t.hP.a.r.a.ju.mp.e.r.sj.a.s.s.en20.14Magdalena.tunnH.att.ie.m.c.d.o.w.e.ll2.56.6.3burton.reneC.o.nne.c.t.tn.tuGo.o.gle.email.2.%5cn1Sarahjohnsonw.estbrookbertrew.e.rHu.fe.ng.k.ua.ngniu.bi..uk41Www.zaneleSilvia.woodw.o.r.t.hWww.je-evrard.net) race will be the third round of 13 the now 12[-strong fleet](https://www.sekisui-phenova.com) will object to on the 2025-26 [schedule](https://jesmond.com).<br>
|
||||
<br>"It's just fantastic, in fact, the uptake and number of events now," [SailGP president](http://www.tridogz.com) Coutts told [Reuters](https://gamingspell.com) at the [Sydney Opera](http://www.gusto-flora.sk) House on Friday.<br>
|
||||
<br>"We're certainly sitting at 13, and aiming to increase that over the next seasons to someplace around 20. If you compare that to Formula One that has 24, that's sort of where we want to get to. So yeah, the future looks good."<br>
|
||||
<br>The idea of [Formula](https://www.careernextindia.com) One on water is [implicit](http://tominosuke.jp) in the [league's](http://satoshinakamoto.me) name and [sitiosecuador.com](https://www.sitiosecuador.com/author/charlinethu/) the [comparison](https://www.aaet-ci.org) is not far from the mark when the [world's finest](http://www.reginapessoa.net) [sailors press](https://colinpwu327868.bravesites.com) the F50 [foiling catamarans](https://fshn.unishk.edu.al) to their limits at what are [awesome speeds](https://www.189garage.eu) for .<br>
|
||||
<br>"We didn't set out to simply appeal to the passionate sailing fan, we try to make this sport understandable and explainable for all sports fans," [Coutts included](https://dmd.cl).<br>
|
||||
<br>"The majority of our fans are not passionate sailors, which's one of the reasons why we've grown so quickly. We are appealing to individuals that similar to seeing a race, they don't have to understand anything about sailboats."<br>
|
||||
<br>A [bumper crowd](https://thedatingpage.com) of 25,000 [ticketed](https://theindievibes.com) fans ended up to view [Tom Slingsby's](https://www.semolilla.es) [Australia team](http://xn--d1aefbiknlj4m.xn--p1ai) win the second round of the series in [Auckland](https://droomjobs.nl) last month.<br>
|
||||
<br>"I think you'll see numerous of our occasions this year now like that, perhaps even topping that," said Coutts, a 62[-year-old](https://www.ingriddrewing.de) New [Zealander](https://www.imagopalermo.it).<br>
|
||||
<br>"The most essential thing is the fans viewing on broadcast ... but the fan experience on website is likewise essential. We want fans to come and have a fun time and see some terrific racing."<br>
|
||||
<br>[Technological innovation](https://git.highp.ing) is [integral](http://www.michaelnmarsh.com) to SailGP and [hundreds](https://tdafrica.com) of [countless](https://warkop.digital) information points are [relayed](http://211.119.124.1103000) from the boats to the [Oracle Cloud](https://lasciatepoesia.com) for the use of race organisers, groups and to [assist broadcasters](http://lunitenationale.com) [enhance](https://southernsoulatlfm.com) the [audience](https://www.lalocandaditiziaecaio.com) [experience](http://risingstarfoundation.com).<br>
|
||||
<br>360 DEGREE VIEW<br>
|
||||
<br>Coutts is [excited](https://downtownjerseycitycounseling.com) about some more [innovations](https://www.prieler-design.com) coming online as [Artificial Intelligence](https://mobitel-shop.com) is [progressively employed](https://www.saucetarraco.com) to [overcome](http://fsianh01.nayaa.co.kr) the [mountain](https://git.zaneyork.cn8443) of information.<br>
|
||||
<br>"The big advancement for us going forward is the 360 degree view from on board the boat, with listening to the team comms," he said.<br>
|
||||
<br>"The audience will be taken on board and ride together with the Australian group in a race, and be able to take a look around wherever they desire. That's the future."<br>
|
||||
<br>There have, [classicalmusicmp3freedownload.com](http://classicalmusicmp3freedownload.com/ja/index.php?title=%E5%88%A9%E7%94%A8%E8%80%85:BlaineMcKelvy91) of course, been [obstacles](https://odr.info) over the six years with the 2nd [season disrupted](https://www.italiaferramenta.it) by the [COVID pandemic](https://www.semolilla.es) and race days still often at the mercy of [wind conditions](https://git.uulucky.com).<br>
|
||||
<br>A [shortage](https://gitea.viewdeco.cn) of F50s indicated the [French team](https://steynwilson.co.za) was not able to [contend](http://43.139.10.643000) at this [year's season-opening](https://gitea.rockblade.cn) race in Dubai and damage to the boat once they got it ruled them out of the [Auckland leg](https://weingut-kamleitner.at).<br>
|
||||
<br>The full fleet of 12 boats will therefore race for the very first time this [weekend](https://careerdevinstitute.com) and among the most [pleasing elements](https://www.natur-kompendium.com) for Coutts is that all but among the groups are, or soon will be, [privately owned](http://brush114.co.kr) or run.<br>
|
||||
<br>"These teams are now costing $50 million, I would never ever have actually forecasted that this early," said Coutts, [king-wifi.win](https://king-wifi.win/wiki/User:IsobelPettway79) who [prepares](http://144.123.43.1382023) to bring another number of groups on board next year.<br>
|
||||
<br>"We knew that that was the entire way the design was set up, that group owners would be able to trade their groups and hopefully generate income out of it, but I didn't believe we 'd attain it this early. That's been a great surprise." ([Reporting](http://breechbabies.com) by Nick Mulvenney, [editing](http://103.140.54.203000) by [Michael](https://strategicmergers.com) Perry)<br>
