CRUNCH

nice one. Raced amongst some of these at Cowes week 2008 and RTi 2009 they are mental speed and that was me on a sportsboat pushing 18kts.

worse things happen at sea

wouldn’t have happened with a steel frame.

They look like a lot of fun, pretty bloody flighty though! I used to have a Nacra 18′, loved that thing, I will have another one (or similar) one of these days… nothing better than hanging off the trapeze on a fast beam reach!

Cynic-al will fix it. Awesome boats though, anyone seen the video of one hitting a wall head on?

Found it.

Duck tape will fix all of those.

Those cats are insane but so much fun. I worked in France years ago & we had a couple which we used to tale the kids out on – when they went they went in a big way & man were they a pain to right..

Ace 🙂

Always wanted a Hobie 18 or 20…Crashed around in a few Darts, Hobie 16’s and Prindle 18-2’s – including racing the ferry on Ullswater, and pitchpoling in front of it with two of us on the wire…

More fun bending boats, 18′ Skiff Stylee:

They look like blummin’ huge, fast boats for a ridiculously tiny bit of water!

haha…. like eco powered F1.
