self right
.
My Tornado w. carbon mast can be
self-righted
with me leaning off the striker... outside assistance not needed.
Understood and agreed. I call
self-right
what you would call
automatic self-right
.
I like to think that this boat was designed to right itself without any action from the crew - much like a ballasted monohull. With multihull speed and monohull self-right (or automatic self-right) capability, it would beat monohulls in each and every point = complete supremacy!
Dream BIG!
there are sailing pictures up on the website
There has been some months now, and it seems like the project has met more trouble than anticipated. At least no success stories on their website. I tought perhaps it was worth to revive this thread after reading about the french who recently crossed the pond on a 20 foot special purpose beachcat. They went over, and righted their boat.

I suppose the project is at an end then. No record attempts over the atlantic and no successful self-righting.
