F1 A-Class flight: “Buenos Aires Sailing” by Juan Faustin
After some videos of the D3 Camp, have another good Dna F1 beautifully filmed by F18/A-Cat/F20 local sailor Juan Faustín. F1 Ride Sergio Mehl.
This was filmed this Saturday at sunset, as we wait for better winds but this time I had to leave early. Juan went out with his F20 and later filmed clip above.
We don´t have blue waters here in BA, but Rio de la Plata is such a great place to sail. Great clip by Faustin, drone latest dji one. This is a revisited cut he just sent with some extra takes from the one published in Fb.
On the actual foiling, check the hopping (pitching) stance , been talking with Sergio on loading rudders to put nose down, he already tested and it changes trim for good. Yesterday he had a super light winds weather setup. He can get airborne in around 7knots wit the F1 and he flies for miles non stop as seen in his past clips.
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
