Really enjoyed this video thanks. We are looking to buy a First 40.7 - we live on the east coast of Australia. Have you any comments on ability to handle prolonged heavy weather - 30 knots plus offshore?. What sort of SOG were you getting on the wind during this race and does the hull ever actually plane in these conditions? Do you use an asymmetrical? Apologies for bothering you with questions.
Amazzzzing guys 😉😉😉

I can't tell you much about the boat since I was just on board as crew for this race. I certainly had a lot of confidence in the boat's abilities.
Did you shoot this with a GoPro?
No, it's with a Contour with a headband strapped to my head.
