“Why we not start a race at 1 knot? The Bavarian Tornado Gang already reach 14 knots speed at 2 knots last days on lake Constance with their prototype!
It is just a question of flexibility. No more excuses why we not start exact on time”
I just heard that my great sailing friend and former CEO of Hobiecat Europe has passed. May The endless oceans…
...Report was sent by an F18 Sailor, if you want Hobies reported send your own, we'll publish as usual. Cheers.
Looks like in your report the Hobies are not really present. Suggest to rewrite the article.
Thanks for the great report Wik. Great battle.
If I correctly read the results the overall winner this year is a Hobie16

the only problem is, as you mentioned on earlier posts, these types of boats are made only to sail only on desireable weather and sea conditions, I doubt if this boat would sail as well as it is sailed on this video on 20 kntos wind, and open sea, but still very impressive for a sailboat I must admit, the whole technology behind it is also very impressive
Very cool indeed. I was looking for a motor or some trick photography.
