Fascinating ! Thanks to share those unique moments : where the genius of naval architect needs the courage of a first crew to trim the ship at such extreme speeds...

[@ssnobrakesable]

Stunning.....

[@coopshopdesigns4890]

flying ship

[@oooSoundOfLifeooo]

You had to choose the SHITTIEST music in the world for such magnificent images, didn't you?

[@kavikafl9345]

How fast on point of sail?

[@PhilippeMarchand-xw1zp]

45 to 50 knots max speed

[@id10tcertified]

Makes my little F-9 Farrier look.... um, little.

[@dubab.249]

All this is beautiful in ideal conditions of calm sea, light wind, girls in bikinis. Sailing in heavy seas and strong winds, you hide your legs like a snake, which happens when you bump into floating grass, a container, nets, or some lice (cut it in half). I still like to sail slowly, it's safer. Getting stuck at such speeds creates severe equipment breaks...

[@chriswaters3442]

The shitty background music adds so much to the video!

[@economicsetc.8729]

needs bigger foils

[@bradclifton5248]

Nah. I recken the dont need the pontoon foils. Ditch them. With rudder foils, they seem unnecessary.

[@carmelpule6954]

At 0:56 she is doing very well indeed but she is in a nose down attitude and that is not safe at all, the rear control surface needs to be adjusted for if that bow enters the water at that angle, it would be a disaster.
At 2:00 she is doing fine indeed and it shows it in its elegance of motion . At 2:18 she is a fully fledged bird flying with all its majesty. Congratulations to the designer, builder and crew. Enjoy it all.

[@yeetandskeet]

w8stral2 chill tf out

[@yelectric1893]

Interesting.

[@Zygotoo56]

AC50s always have their nose down while foiling, the two boats have different configurations

[@johnstenborg3461]

...bla....bla...bla...

[@maryhicks2112]

You didn’t even realise ones a cat and the other is a tri
Were you pissed?

[@Im-mv6bf]

wtf is with that music

[@GTI8855]

I wish that "dubstep" sh1t to be dead already.

[@bunnymaid]

Horrible music. Lovely boat.

[@totallyrealnotfakedonaldtr4246]

Rothschild?

[@ozancanca9740]

Even the fucking foil sails are corroupt lol

[@lukedaniel7669]

Presumably they will break the record by all shape shifting into lizards after they've crossed the start line then time travelling themselves to the finish.

[@BambinoAmericano]

Of course. Gitana was originally the Rothschild lady who went sailing on her own on the Geneva lake. Today the Gitana team is sponsored by the family of Edmond de Rothschild, a beautiful initiative.

[@danielreardon6453]

Spooky Scary

[@WetDoggo]

the dubstep doesn't fit 😂😂

[@hobiecatfunful]

who are you promoting bankster ??

[@BambinoAmericano]

How ignorant can one be... Gitana is one of the great initiatives of the Edmond de Rothschild family.

[@johnstenborg3461]

...bla....bla...bla...

[@jthepickle7]

The sailors don't look very happy.

[@mdjawaideqbal2941]

Horrible Music

[@irkiIIer]
