Test sailing the new 3D foiler by Devoti Sailing. The new foiler is 3.8 metres long, is launched from a trolley, and the sail is raised and lowered by a halyard. There is a two piece carbon mast, all spars sit inside the boat for trailing or rooftopping. The target crew weight is 65-85kg (maybe less). The test sailor (who normally sails an ILCA) weighs 82kg with no previous foiling experience. Production is planned for mid-November by leading Olympic dinghy builder Devoti Sailing. A special price of €11,999 ex VAT is offered on the first 300 boats.
Die langgestreckte schmale Bubble unter dem Rumpf wurde offensichtlich von den AC 75 übernommen. Sie ermöglicht hohe Rumpfgeschwindigkeiten, um den Übergang von der Verdrängerfahrt in den Foil-Modus zu erleichtern.
