allspars were approached by the Americas Cup World Series Management team who were having a few issues with their marker boats.

• The racing crews were having issues spotting the mark boats against a backdrop of spectator boats, allspars were asked to come up with a solution to this problem. A new mounting bracket for the lights was designed and manufactured, giving 180° visibility

• The aerials on top of the mark boats were positioned on a mast held in place by dyneema shrouds, they have discovered that when motoring the boats out into any breeze or any chop the masts were moving too much - allspars have manufactured stainless steel struts to eliminate this.
