Thank you very much! Always wanted to go back to the F18 for same racing. Unfortunatelly I lost a few pounds of belly fat, what makes us way to light for the F18. It makes us too light for the N17 as well but they don't have a minimum weight in the rules.
Thank you very much! I think with music it does look a bit more spectacular. Without, you get a better feeling of the conditions. It does feel more real. What is your favorite capsize so far?
Very nice videos!!! Maybe the helm should tighten his trapetz a little bit to avoid falling into the water. I must ask; is the Nacra 17 faster than the Tornado? And, what does 17 stand for, is it the length of the boat in feet? Please, someone answer!
The hulls are 17 feet long and yes, it's a lot faster than a tornado. A foiling cat does sail different. With a normal cat you simply can bare away when sailing downwind. If you do that on a foiler you go swimming. Everything needs to be in balance.
Love BornToSail Video Style. Been sailing as crew on an F18 FCS since 2019. These boats are no joke. This team is awesome.

What a great video to sit back, crack a beer and watch. (action packed with no music). Even better :o)

17 is the length in feet and it is faster than tornado because of the modernity of the hull + the foils.
