    What was wind speed you were sailing in that allowed you to foil at 25 knots ? That's insane !

      That day wind was 10kn average and 15kn peak measured at the weatherbuoy at 2m height above 2 water. So to get to 25kn boat speed, for sure i caught a gust in the 15kn range. At 10kn windspeed you can get approx 18-20kn boat speed. 30kn boat speed is pretty much the maximum for A-Cats, and for sure in >20kn winds that only top sailors can handle.
