Flying Phantom Production Final Foil Conf

Excellent pics from Dec 29 taken by Alex Udin. Click for HD. Pic one is clearly showing the new T rudders replacing the former L ones, and next image shows the new Dagger shape withouth the complex S at the top.
Now truly a Mini Me TNZ foil conf like Cammas C, that also has similar Kiwi scaled hulls. 
The flying Phantom looks just incredible, I will try to get to Europe next season just to take advantage of all the invitations I have to test the  Hydros,  F Phantom & coming flying GC32.

    Really like the design of the ski, I was looking at your design as an 18'6" unlimited race sup.

  2. catsailingnews says:

    Yes, I've made a racing SUP based on this Surfski design. Finishing details to route it as a hollow frame construction.

  3. JK Fla says:

    That would be interesting to see, is there a reason you are going with a hollow construction? What size board?

  4. catsailingnews says:

    Here in Arg they are starting to race in 12,6. But as you say a 18'6'' unlimited or at 14' would be ideal lenght to scale this Surfski.

    Hollow to simplify construction. A routed framed kit for quick assembly like Tom Blake's hollow paddleboards, but using the router.

    Also only internal structure , and rails to be added/shaped at will later as an alternative too.

    If you do not mind me asking what width are you using for the 12'6"? For an 18'6" unlimited I would want around 25" wide for my 90kg weight give or take a few kgs depending on the stability.

  6. catsailingnews says:

    For the 12'6'' I'm using 27. These are the lines of the 12,6 scaled for an unlimited.

  7. JK Fla says:

    For an unlimited it looks wide, most are 18'6"x25" with recessed decks to lower the CG. For a 12'6" it looks great. I would be interested to see what the black or blue surf ski looks like with the width pulled to 25". Coming from doing repair work to race sail boats I always liked looking at the lines and curves of the hulls. Thank you for all your responses, Jesse

    The view cause that wider sensation. This is actually 23" .. Compare with the 12,6 (27'')
    The Surfski is being wood framed for a one-off. Will post pics soon.

    Hi what is the latest with the surf ski MV 605 wp

  11. Ojay says:

    Hi, just saw the MV 605 wp ski project. Looks great. What would be the specifications? Any plans to build the ski? Thanks.

  12. catsailingnews says:

    A strip wooden model/proto was being built by my brother, but he moved his workshop to our river Delta and I think it is not finished yet. I might build it with someone in Europe too, and send it to cnc router here in BA soon along a racing sup.

  13. Ojay says:

    We are currently looking for a new, fresh design here in Australia, for a new brand (coming very soon). Interested in an exchange of information/coop?

  14. catsailingnews says:

    PM me and we can discuss it. Check mail below social links above right column.
