The AC50 (defined in the America's Cup rules simply as AC class yacht) is a wing sail catamaran box rule, governing the construction and operation of the yachts to be used for inshore racing in the 2017 Louis Vuitton Cup selection series and the 2017 America's Cup.[2] The class does not prohibit the use of hydrofoils so L-shaped daggerboard elevators as well as T-shaped rudder elevators, which were previously used in AC72s, are expected in the competition.
