Alinghi Unveils Its DOGgie

Alinghi’s new DOGgie was revealed over the weekend!

After months of waiting, Alinghi has finally unveiled its new Deed of Gift match multihull and . . . it’s a cat — defying the predictions of many a pundit. Like the BMW/Oracle trimaran, it’s a relatively-conventional looking boat. Observers have called it a scaled-up version of Ernesto Bertarelli’s 41-ft Alinghi Catamaran, sans the central pod for rig loads, but with a byzantine web of carbon rods, stays and dolphin strikers instead. The team haven’t released any official dimensional information yet, but it sure looks big! We’ll have to bring you better photos at a later date, because it seems our login to the media area at the Alinghi website is no longer functional, and our new registration hasn’t been vetted yet apparently.
