WOW!!! I want one!

awesome!
what was the name of the cat that just flipped durring speed record attempts ?

Hydroptere?

Mcquarie Innovation "exploded" its wing last year and should also be of interest.

those are both cool... but not the one i was thinking of.
It was a cat... with the sail on one side and the skipper on the other...

Think you are taking about this one


Doug

This is the one where it comes apart

Doug

Thats the one, thanks Doug

... i thought they were closer to the 50 knot mark

Andrew:

This is the record run. Better than 50 knots when she came apart!!!!!



Doug

YES THATS IT.... thanks Doug. I was just talking about it with my crew on Sunday durring a slow part in a race.

Andrew:

Glad to help. Pretty bad blow over. I am pretty good at searching the net.

Doug

So, what do you do at that point?? Sheet out???? Nah, Hell, sail it like somebody else is paying the bills!!! GO FOR IT!!!!

So did that count as a world speed record? even though he landed on his head?

crap.

talk about "flying a hull"

how big are the beach wheels for this thing?

They use the wheels from this dump truck

Andrew:

I think that is one of the Extreme 40's being moved around.

Doug

Doug: no its not.

Its CheeseZilla

is it me or does it seem like there is a little lack of volume up front for downwind?
