[quote=DanBerger]I need to add to my last reply--he said he got the 18 to foil, but it would quickly stall, then crash. It was something about the speed and weight and the technology of the foils he was using. He is being towed in one of the pictures, which I think was his last attempt at that boat before he gave up and went with the A cat.
What started as a friendly conversation turned into a PhD level dissertation on hydrodynamics, angles, etc, which made my brain hurt. That and the beer.
Seriously, if you are working on a thesis, do what you can to contact him. The email link on the site doesn't work but he posts on CatSailor regularly. He is a very nice guy and he really likes to talk foiling.[/quote]
