Gitana Edmond de Rothschild: Foil Appendages explained II
Early Saturday was checking Route du Rhum live stream on the Ultims leaving Port (Start was cancelled later on to Nov 9th) and how the French fans were rooting for majority of local sailing heroes preparing to cross the Atlantic.
France is the Nr 1 Sailing Nation, no matter if they don’t have now an Americas Cup Team, the French people feel and live sail racing as we Argies live say Football, full passionate and it shows when we appreciate the companies sponsoring big Ultims projects designed by legends like Gilllaume Verdier and built in local yards.
Also when seeing the size of the kids and youth fleets we were lucky enough to witness at Carnac 2014.
Above yet another explanatory foiling appendage video by Gitana Team.
