John Kostecki is the brains behind the boat<\/strong>. As the tactician for Larry Ellison’s 2013 America\u2019s Cup team<\/a>, the 48-year-old world champion sailor<\/a> is the guy who will be plotting the course when the team’s 72-foot catamaran <\/a>races this summer<\/a> on San Francisco Bay.<\/p>\n

I photographed Kostecki at Oracle Team USA’s headquarters off lower Third Street in San Francisco. When Kostecki told me to meet him at the team “shed,”\u00a0 I envisioned some shanty-like building<\/strong> sitting dockside along the water. Wrong.
