I want to go SLOW...to go FASTER!


Don't get me wrong here, but I really want to go SLOW....

Who doesn't LOVE a foiling mono - or multi-hull sailboat ripping up the Holy water of our planet? I sure do. I'm one of the biggest fans of foiling under wind power!

Please let me be Crystal clear here, capsizing SUCKS WIND - literally. If you have ever been knocked over, and remained inverted (Turtled) you know exactly what I'm talking about. Have you ever had to call on outside assistance for recovery or rescue?

Read on.

Just the suggestion of a self-righting multi-hull, would get you thrown out of the pub. Why? Is it like suggesting pylon aircraft racing at the Reno Air Races should all be limited to 200 knots and fly above 2000 feet? Or maybe, Tour de France Race bikes should all have speed limiting devises added to keep them under 40 kph?

I don't get it. Why has SELF-RIGHTING multihulls been so forbidden?

There is no technical reason that super high-tech - fast multihull sailboats should ever remain inverted for any longer than 5 seconds. The solution is a rather simple geometry change to the hulls.

In addition, our multihull sailboat design, can, AT WILL, be converted to a NON-self-righting mode is just a few minutes for a high(er) performance ride.

Advantages of a self-righting multihull?

1) Share the stoke of speed sailing and foiling without the risk to the other precious souls on board.

2) Adaptive Sports Programs. Offer modern high performance multihull foiling to the Adaptive community.

3) Ideal for a long, offshore, blue water passage, cruising with peace-of-mind that inversion has been greatly reduced.

Let me be clear, our self-righting design will add some DRAG and SLOW the vessel down. Period.

Trading top end speed and capsize anxiety for peace of mind, has unlimited possibilities.

Our "device" contains no Lead or heavy metals, is light weight and is designed with shoal draft in mind.
