Un mic videoclip cu primul nostru pasaj spre sud de la Costa Rica la Panama, după ce am făcut trei luni de reparații solide pentru a pregăti barca pentru mare.

Hilarious to hear you talking about upping the horsepower and admiring your existing hi tech carbon sails with the latest go fast slots. Serious question: for someone like you with worldwide experience, what sail loft will you use for that deck sweeping Genoa and reacher? When you talk about fabricating a longer prod/bowsprit, where do you plan on doing that? Will all the bow railing be going?
As always, the video footage of your first passage is beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
17:00 I never realized swinging keel as barnacle hideout. Better visibility under high genoa.
A gorgeous boat!
SWEET, looks awesome. Small pulpit, tramps from the bow to the amas, longer bowsprit, maybe move the chain locker and windlass aft of the akas. What a boat. Even with your super high tech sails.
sweet tri in a sweet spot to sail by the looks. Are you worried by the surface area of your trampolines catching swell and doing damage to a hull or float?
Along with your fantastic Black sails there are a dozen Bricks towed behind for added bouncy.
Epic 🙂 Couldn't you have thrown up the other foresail ? Looked like it was closer to the deck.
Boat looks beautiful! Congrats and thanks!
The high foot is a great safety feature for visibility. Chris never had extreme power in the sails, preferring safety and steady speed over very high power. That's one reason his rigs also aren't incredibly tall. Taller rigs also increase heeling forces, risk of capsize (like in a squall), etc. Every design decision is a tradeoff, and Chris biased them towards safe, fast cruising. In short, it's a feature, not a bug.
An auspicious first sail, congratulations.
I do hope you've patented the 'slip leech' technology! I mean it's clearly a winner! Phil
the joy's of having company to help and lot of change's in electronics since 80's . Most of my miles solo
Great to see Jase. Beautiful video work mate. Boat looking great.
what a beautiful first sail . living the dream guys , congratulations on the new boat .. enjoy
So exciting,I was enjoying your description of your sails,made me laugh 🙂
The slit in the leech, with reinforcing tape behind the slit, makes me think of aircraft flaps. You could potentially get more lift from the sail at low speeds if you can master slit technology to create a multi element sail. 😉
Beautiful! Love the narration. Feel like we are along with you.
I've coped with an offset board for decades. Diff to clear shells from inside the case I know. During the ashore Covid refit, I recently made a slightly thinner composite board which is positively buoyant. It really slams itself right up now!
I deliberately ordered a working high clew roller Genoa. Plus a bigger code0 whose endless roller attaches to the bow roller..
I'd keep the railings. Good for pets or kids, or any crew in bad weather. It is a fast cruiser.
Can you not just unfurl the staysail in light wind to give that extra speed, ?
Nice setup! So you’re mainsheet… it looks like there’s a central mainsheet, and then almost an a-frame / german mainsheet as well for tension? I’d be really interested to hear how it goes and whether you feel it gives enough main control…. Our tri currently has a horrible setup and I’m looking at alternatives.
Also, is that one of the Sleipner pod bow thrusters? If so, ours came with one also and they’re great, but just be careful of mooring lines getting wrapped around them when the wind dies. We run an ama bridle and then a central line to stop us driving over the mooring line…
Awesome. still can't believe you two own that boat its such a winner and deserves you both.
Can't wait for the next clip. Thanks for sharing.
Really happy for you. Looking forward to seeing what you do with the sail plan.
Are you confident with the twin main sheet instead of a traveller?
❤ Magnificent sailing!and what a sea!
Great video.
Trimerans are the best looking boats.
