SYDNEY, Feb 7 (Reuters) - SailGP go back to where everything started in Sydney this weekend and six years on from the inaugural race, co-founder Russell Coutts sees a brilliant future for wiki.rrtn.org the ingenious international sailing league.

An Olympic champion and skipper of three Americas Cup-winning boats, Coutts partnered with Larry Ellison, the billionaire founder of the Oracle software application company, to launch the series with six teams all owned by the league.

While the inaugural season which kicked off in Sydney in February 2019 featured just 5 rounds, this weekend's race will be the 3rd round of 13 the now 12-strong fleet will object to on the 2025-26 schedule.

"It's simply incredible, actually, the uptake and variety of events now," SailGP chief executive Coutts told Reuters at the Sydney Opera House on Friday.

"We're certainly sitting at 13, and aiming to increase that over the next seasons to somewhere around 20. If you compare that to Formula One that has 24, that's sort of where we desire to get to. So yeah, the future appearances excellent."

The idea of Formula One on water is implicit in the league's name and the contrast is not far from the mark when the world's finest sailors push the F50 foiling catamarans to their limitations at what are spectacular speeds for waterborne vessels.

"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.

"Most of our fans are not devoted sailors, which's one of the reasons that we've grown so quickly. We are appealing to individuals that much like seeing a race, they don't have to understand anything about sailboats."

A bumper crowd of 25,000 ended up to view Tom Slingsby's Australia team win the 2nd round of the series in Auckland last month.

"I believe you'll see several of our events this year now like that, perhaps even topping that," said Coutts, a 62-year-old New Zealander.

"The most crucial thing is the fans enjoying on broadcast ... but the fan experience on site is also critically important. We desire fans to come and have a terrific time and see some fantastic racing."

Technological development is integral to SailGP and hundreds of thousands of data points are communicated from the boats to the Oracle Cloud for using race organisers, teams and to assist broadcasters enhance the viewer experience.

360 DEGREE VIEW

Coutts is thrilled about some more innovations coming online as Artificial Intelligence is increasingly employed to resolve the mountain of information.

"The big development for us going forward is the 360 degree view from on board the boat, with listening to the group comms," he said.

"The audience will be taken on board and ride in addition to the Australian group in a race, and have the ability to take a look around anywhere they want. That's the future."

There have, obviously, wiki.dulovic.tech been difficulties over the 6 years with the 2nd season disrupted by the COVID pandemic and bphomesteading.com race days still sometimes at the mercy of wind conditions.

A shortage of F50s meant the French team was unable to compete at this year's season-opening race in Dubai and tandme.co.uk damage to the boat once they got it ruled them out of the Auckland leg.

The full fleet of 12 boats will therefore race for the very first time this weekend and among the most pleasing aspects for asteroidsathome.net Coutts is that all but one of the teams are, or soon will be, privately owned or wiki.dulovic.tech run.

"These groups are now offering for $50 million, I would never ever have anticipated that this early on," said Coutts, passfun.awardspace.us who prepares to bring another couple of teams on board next year.

"We understood that that was the whole method the design was established, that group owners would have the ability to trade their teams and hopefully earn money out of it, but I didn't think we 'd attain it this early. That's been a good surprise." (Reporting by Nick Mulvenney, modifying by Michael Perry)
