- FLYING THE HULL ON YOUR CATAMARAN IS A GREAT WAY OF IMPROVING CONTROL AND GAINING MORE FEEL FOR THE BOAT. Here we're looking at the increasing levels of difficulty encountered with different positions on the sailboat.

This May launch joyrider challenge : MTA:maximum time aloft (just for fun videos)
Nice! I think he with the most space and constant wind might take it.
I'm new to catamaran sailing. Are we trying to fly a hull or is this just an exercise or for fun? I've read in some places that flying a hull is faster, but this seems to counter what I know from monohulls where we try to keep the boat flat to maximize speed. I realize that flying a hull could reduce drag, but does this offset the loss of efficiency in the sail angle as it heels over? I noticed in this video that every time you flew the hull that speed actually decreased.
On a broad reach flying a hull is slower. But when close hauled sailing to windward, especially when out on the trap, keeping the windward hull just out of the water will get you the best angle to the wind and maximize your VMG. You may sail just a bit slower than turning down a bit and sheeting out, but your VMG will be better.
I will talk about this question in the live Q&A session tomorrow on the channel
That was excellent, some great shots Joe.... Cheers!
Thanks! It was great fun to make this one!
I went +1 on that once on my Nacra 5.2. I was in a race passing quite close in front of some oncoming yachts while trapped out flying a hull, no real margin for error. Then my $%^&* joystick let go off the tiller bar! The boat was tracking beautifully so the only choice I had was to not upset the balance and carry on as if nothing had happened. I waved the parted joystick casually at the surprised looking yachtsmen, as if to say this happens all the time... I tell you my heart rate must have told a very different story, but its a great memory!
Wow, that sounds like one heck of an experience
@@JoyriderTV Its a peak experience in hindsight. But to be fair, I felt really stupid at the time! It must have been quite funny to see from the yachts though!
Nice views! and getting quieter end of season
Yes, a lot less traffic now that August is behind us
Just curious to know how you get filmed from the front? With a drone?? Thanks for shares your expérience
I'll draw some pictures in the Q+A - It's the long pole!
@@JoyriderTV kindly let me know the number of the Q&A covering that question. Thanks!!
@@luctonneau9074 It will be live this Friday at 1830 Greek time - and then available to watch at any time afterwards.
Well done Joe, you make it look so easy!
Thanks!! Perhaps a miss-spent youth
That was fun to watch!
In situation at 1:50, would you be able to get the back foot out on time in case of a leeward capsize?
That's a good point - I just watched it - maybe not - I think better to use the strap to brace against rather than foot under.
Another great video! Great to see you having some fun! 😎
Thanks! 😃 This was a lot of fun!!
Just bought my first Hobie 16 thanks to your vids. Cheers for that.
Happy sailing
Congratulations! Good times ahead
I have been waiting for this one. Jeopardy level 3: Pure showboating!
Oh yes. There's really no need for it - felt pretty dodgy.
