Hrm looks fast but it doesn't look as stable as the phantom...
Maybe its just the sea state... I wonder if detailed pics of the foil control systems would be possible..

The advertisement below the video is a little misleading. The new F20 we got had the hardware on the spin pole mounted backwards and both dagger boards broke when we did the Texas 300 causing the hull to fill up with water. The trip to do the race cost us a lot and apparently Nacra new the first generation boards did not hold up. Great boat once you get the problems solved and to bad Nacra's quality control is not better.

Just read that their topspeed was 28 knots, not bad for 20ft beachcat.

Conditions? Looks like the mono they passed was pretty well heeled over but the water itself didn't appear to be that chopped up.

This is the location where they sailed from, its a flatwater spot and home to some of the Nacra guys:

Wind's where not that strong last Sunday, I'm guessing something like 14-18kts (rough guess).

OK, now from the links on this thread, I've seen int with the chute up- looks like it's getting dialed in pretty well!
