THE AIRBORN
DISCOVERING THE HULL SHAPE
[ENG] The Airborn – Discovering the hull shape
It’s happening now. The hull shape mould is now being machined at the facilities of Atlantic Modelage et Composites in Nantes.
For the already more then 200 fans of the Airborn worldwide, it is the opportunity to discover the modern hull shape that provides minimum contact with the water before take off and stability while reducing drag in the air.
Directly from our experience in the America’s Cup and what has now become SailGP, The Airborn is for those who want to sail fast.
Next dates this autumn in 2026 for the early sailors with an event in Napoli.
The Airborn removes all barriers to sailing fast: form stability, electric control of the foils, and carbon efficient foils for early take off in 6kts of wind.
Be ready! It’s coming your way now.

[IT] The Airborn – Alla scoperta della forma dello scafo
Sta succedendo ora. Lo stampo della forma dello scafo è attualmente in lavorazione presso gli stabilimenti di Atlantic Modelage et Composites a Nantes.
Per gli oltre 200 appassionati dell’Airborn in tutto il mondo, è l’occasione per scoprire una moderna forma dello scafo, progettata per offrire il minimo contatto con l’acqua prima del decollo e garantire stabilità, riducendo al contempo la resistenza aerodinamica in volo.
Nato direttamente dalla nostra esperienza in Coppa America e in quello che oggi è diventato SailGP, The Airborn è per chi vuole navigare veloce.
I prossimi appuntamenti saranno nell’autunno 2026, con un evento a Napoli dedicato ai primi velisti.
The Airborn elimina tutte le barriere alla navigazione veloce: stabilità di forma, controllo elettrico dei foil e foil in carbonio ad alta efficienza per un decollo già con soli 6 nodi di vento.
Preparatevi! Sta arrivando anche da voi.

[FR] The Airborn – À la découverte de la forme de la coque
C’est maintenant que tout commence. Le moule de la forme de coque est actuellement en cours d’usinage dans les ateliers d’Atlantic Modelage et Composites à Nantes.
Pour les plus de 200 passionnés de l’Airborn à travers le monde, c’est l’occasion de découvrir une forme de coque moderne, conçue pour offrir un contact minimal avec l’eau avant le décollage, tout en apportant stabilité et en réduisant la traînée en vol.
Directement issu de notre expérience en Coupe de l’America et dans ce qui est aujourd’hui devenu SailGP, The Airborn est destiné à ceux qui veulent naviguer vite.
Les prochains rendez-vous auront lieu à l’automne 2026, avec un événement à Naples pour les premiers navigateurs.
The Airborn supprime toutes les barrières à la navigation rapide : stabilité de forme, contrôle électrique des foils et foils en carbone à haute efficacité permettant un décollage dès 6 nœuds de vent.
Préparez-vous ! Il arrive bientôt près de chez vous.
Beyond pure design
With this project, our ambition was to raise the overall standard of sailing equipment. As sailing has evolved from displacement boats to lightweight skiffs and now to foiling, our goal has been to contribute meaningful advances using the technologies now everywhere around us, and the evolving needs of society. This includes making sailing easier to discover and introducing new ways to sail, beyond just ownership.
On-demand sailing, and a modern Class Association
Among the main advances is the Airborn community, which will allow Airborn owners to make their boats available through our platform to other sailors, reducing both the cost of ownership and the cost of sailing. Owning an Airborn today is available from 300 euros per month for owners and 160 euros per month on a membership basis directly via our website.
The Class Association’s aim is to develop racing worldwide with official championships, while simultaneously enabling a commercial circuit to emerge. This will allow sailors to progress to professional sailing and lay the foundations for new audiences to discover the sport.
We look forward to seeing these boats on the water and to the racing ahead, and we invite you all to learn more about the project in the coming weeks. It is time.
A project from our Advanced Naval Architecture Division
The Airborn Foiler benefits from our Advanced Naval Architecture Divsion, which applies knowledge in robotic technology, advanced composite construction in the America’s Cup and beyond.
