Fast Fun In Foiler Town - Extreme Moth Sailing

Fast Times courtesy of Paul Larson and the Sail Rocket team. It's been around for a bit now but still a classic moth vid showing foil town at it's best.

the stick hanging off the front is called a bow wand. it senses the height of the water under the bow and then as it gets pushed up with each wave, it pushes and pulls little levers and such inside the hull and that connects the the hydrofoil on centreboard to keep the boat stable.

[@desertblbuesman]

Stunning!

[@mojostevo]

Awesome stuff.

[@fieldofscreams]

Wow. Great job with the video.

[@glendeco]

Dude, that looks really fun!!

[@plbuster]

Now how could anyone dislike this video...

[@MrSerir]

It`s amazing!!

[@HartasProductionsOfficial]

otherwise, the hydrofoil on the centreboard would stay at the same depth and the boat would be jockeying up and down with each and every little ripple in the water. the adjustments made are tiny. the hydrofoil on the rudder is adjusted by twisting the tiller extension. but its more of a fine tuning mechanism. hope i helped!

I want one too ! I wish I had the money and someone to train with... I guess I'll have to cope with my laser !

[@FramePerHour]

This looks like fun ... it is Fun =)

[@ibanez2323]

The song title is at the very beginning of the video (although now I see that it is missing one letter). Song is 'Are You Ready' by Copious.

@ELEMENT9977
The self adjusting mechanism you just described for the hydrofoil; in short, could also be called an auto trim system...
Small aircraft also have them .. Cesnas and pipers.. I fly them..
just sharing the knowledge..

[@flowandgo]

[@cids7777]

[@davelee9]

[@ezema14]

[@Table552]

@dedly13 I had the same experience in a feva, and my old low rider moth! (1970's) :)

[@CH3TT3RS]

awesome vid. i REALLY want one!!! anyone know the song?

[@aquawolf996]

what was the original song for this video??

[@m1leswilliams]

They are for sale for £4500 second hand.

[@davidhowell7901]

Still looking for the ORIGINAL song for this video...the one that was removed due to copy rights or something.

[@ibanez2323]

David Howell the track playing is the original track used - Are You Ready by Copious. Unfortunately it looks like the song doesn’t really exist anywhere else (it was a pretty unknown song at the time when I uploaded this vid years ago)

[@davidhowell7901]

Thanks for the quick reply. I thought the version of the song might have been different. Seems I recall some "vocals" or computer generated voice in the beginning of the song. Possible cut from a video game...at any rate, that's always been one of my favorite sailing videos!

[@NE-Explorer]

isnt this the 6 flags song

[@dedly13]

@ObzervrR i heard they can go 30 with enough wind, bloody terrifying when ur sailing a feva and they come towards u i can tell you

[@redwizrd]
