A-Cat +20knots breeze flight by James Clark
First video showing James Clark blasting on his D3 at the Waxit Regatta held few weeks ago. We published the event news and pics (here) and James commented he reached 30knots of boat speed.
From Waxit regatta post “””…James also finished with an impressive 3rd overall for those tough conditions on his A-Cat (He sailed an Exploder D3 with a Brewin DS Mk4 & Z22s foils) behind 2 H16s. He reports on the wind conditions : “Highest average wind speed was 22 knots, boat speeds were around 29.3 knots “ .
This of course along the 28-30knots gusts that hit the fleet in some races that broke some boats…””””
Surely looking bloody fast in video above. Great videos courtesy of James Clark.
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
