AMERICAN MAGIC Quantum Racing

Twenty years TP52 class member, 2008 MedCup Champions and runners-up in 2009 and 2010. Quantum Racing won the Audi MedCup Circuit in 2011 with a new build Botin Partners designed boat build at Longitud Zero. At the 52 Super Series in 2012 she was the runner up to Azzurra, 2013 and 2014 saw the roles reversed. In 2015 it was Azzurra again but in 2016 nothing else can be said than that Quantum Racing stamped their authority on the series, such was their lead (59 points) when the dust settled in Cascais. But in 2017 it was reversed again with Azzurra in 1st and Quantum in 3rd with TP52 World Champion Platoon between them. Then Quantum Racing under Terry Hutchinson leadership took 2018 from Platoon (2nd) and Azzurra 3rd. With Hutchinson full on in charge of American Magic in 2019 we saw a Quantum Racing team with quite a few crew changes from 2018. In 2021Terry Hutchinson was on board again, as in 2022. In 2024 American Magic had another go at the world’s best known sailing trophy, which already for 2023 resulted in quite a large crew change for the TP52, mixing young talent with longstanding reputations. The 2024 line-up did not disappoint and once more took the highest step on the 52 Super Series podium. With Terry back for 2025 and again a good mix of proven and upcoming talent this now almost fully USA team shall be magic!
