Although
building an America's Cup contender
is an endeavor shrouded in secrecy,
it's no secret that vying for
the Auld Mug is the most demanding
arena in which a high-tech, composite
boatbuilder can compete. So while
secrecy (and our non-disclosure
agreement) prevents us from sharing
the materials combinations and
the building processes we utilized
to create Stars & Stripes
(New England Boatworks has built
three
Stars & Stripes America's
Cup contenders for
Team Dennis Conner), we can say
that from among the world's leading
boatbuilders, Dennis Conner has
chosen NEB time and again.
