Bol d’Or 2012

Not much info available and no record as Alinghi had last year, although is interesting to see how part of Energy Team is racing with LadyCat… Alinghi and Artemis racing the Boldor and the D35 circuit. Last event was won by LadyCat. Photos: Chris Schmid. i bet on an Energy Team funded in the background by the Bertarelli family.

Also I can´t believe how much money and effort are being invested in building “fast” monohulls.

Fast and effcient monohulls are the Volvo Ocean Race ones, those are hardcore boats and sailors…but these foiler and trap monohulls lake racers performance attemps are oxymorons… just invest in building multihulls , you’ll get the speed you are looking for in a wider range of conditions.
