Watch the June edition of CNN's MainSail where presenter Shirley Robertson goes sailing with America's Cup defenders Alinghi.

This month the theme is multihulls, and Shirley will be investigating to see what Alinghi may produce when they finally reveal their boat for the defense of the 33rd edition of the regatta.

We'll also be speaking with the man who is called "Mr Multihull" and showing you how he got his title.

Also on MainSail in June we take you racing in Venice and bring you dramatic Volvo Ocean Race action from the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.
