@@kekarthurthebastard226 this design is specifically for breaking the World Speed Record with spin-off kite, hydro and foil tech

@@TuyenHuynh-uw3im the current record (64.5) was set in about 25 knots of wind. Target conditions for breaking the world record are 30 knots of wind.

@@marcobrancorsini2479 you might need to rethink the weight distribution 🙃

@katamaranscom Definitely💀💀

In between a traditional Tri and a cat

@@katamaranscom indeed. I suppose the way I see it is you have all the cat issues devoid of many cat advantages.

@@katamaranscom What's the price point on this, brother?

@sterlingarcher1962 I think this Xtra Space model opens up the living space. Pretty impressive plus the master cabin up top is pretty unique (Neel also do this). The guy who bought the first one wants to do 10 day Atlantic crossings. There's the main advantage with this, high average daily mileage/ ability to avoid bad weather. Also there is only one engine to service and your fuel consumption will be half in the Doldrums. You are sailing from 5 knots of wind if you don't overload the boat.

Dave doesn't care

Сейчас 43 узла, следующая цель 50. Время покажет.

​@@katamaranscomзаявлено 80 на парусе. Это глупость. Через парус таких скоростей не будет

@@MikeLoric it will be if they manage it, agree

@@Marco-uz8xx designed specifically for the World Sailing Speed Record but there will be spin off tech from this for sure

@katamaranscom the world would love to this with a Electric Engine. There is a world record a speed boats

Yes, look very interesting

Fast comments! 😉

Yes, maybe a 63XS 🤔

She has 15% more upwind sail area than a Neel 52 (carbon mast option), but you are right to highlight that, this isn't a first-timers boat by any means. I don't think the comparison to the Beneteau makes sense, different market IMO

​@@katamaranscom I only compared with boats I have sailed on of similar size , the Oceanis 60 is not a slouch of a boat either.

@@StudioBhobhoTrimarans are so much different to monos and the CW HH - while a great boat - is of a completely different era. Extra sail area translates to better light wind performance, and then reefing earlier when the wind builds. I’d trust M&Ms design on sail area…

Not in my view. 0.9m. A good balance between height and windage.

I think it sounds like they had some good service from Rapido fixing all of the teething issues. I have yet to see a brand new boat with no problems to iron out, they are complex machines. You are often better off buying a 3 year old boat and letting the previous owner deal with them

SLV is also a custom boat and on a drama-filled channel. Several other Rapido owners have spoken up and confirmed their boats are fine.

@@svZia-Switch51 yes, you'd need a Multihull friendly marina with a Croc lift

@@RealNotallGaming the Drakkar look more than up for the job

@@Andrew-vz3qk the optimum angle is around 100° to the true wind. The kite acts as a foil, sucking the boat forward (same phenomenon that lifts an airplane). As the boat accelerates, the apparent wind direction the boat "feels" moves further and further forward

@@dennispatrick4999 the incident in Japan? Nothing yet I don't think except they are all safe and sound which is the most important thing

@@manitilley7877 no, not in this version (XS). They do on the standard 50 and 40.

@@kiwibonsai2355 top speed is 55 knots at the moment for AC75s which would not break the record. But they are racing, still an incredible design

I think you are right, but they won't beat the World Sailing Record like that

yes it does a bit

55 m² to be precise

🙏🏼🙏🏼

We have a longer video on our channel that goes into more detail

Time will tell I guess

As you say, the fact that the boat is in the water helps to regulate the temperature. Also, these aluminium cats are well insulated which also helps to reduce any temperature volatility. Many people are sitting in metal vehicles (cars) in extreme temperatures without the dampening effect of water all around them

@@vernon9121 I think it's complex enough to control one kite in 30 knots of wind. No electronic assistance is allowed

@katamaranscom higher to air in motion not disturbed by gusts and micro bursts with one kite with more pockets.
