Quantum Sails Genova 

Since his teenage years, Pietro Pinucci has combined his love of sailing with the science behind it. After moving from Milan to Genova for a Master's in naval architecture, he balanced regattas on weekends with designing a downwind simulation model for his thesis. Following graduation, he joined Quantum Italy, mastering everything from repairs to modifications before advancing to sail design for projects ranging from dinghies like the Finn and Fireball to larger yachts. His expertise eventually led him to join the American Magic design team for the 37th America's Cup, focusing on advanced aero systems, performance analysis, sail design, measurement rules and sail management systems.

Pietro competes in the Finn class and on ORC boats in his spare time. "The only thing I know about sailing is that I don't know enough," he says. "Meeting someone or jumping on a new boat is always an opportunity to learn something new."
