America's Cup teams sailing against each other, other than at sanctioned events is illegal under the Protocol for the next America's Cup.

Here is the next best thing - two videos shot in similar circumstances - that show the similarities and differences between the AC75 designs. In this case it is INEOS Team UK - with their AC75 scow design, Britannia, compared to Emirates Team New Zealand and their skiff Te Aihe.

Both videos are shot in similar conditions light-moderate breezes and flat water.
