Portland Yacht Club × iFLY15 Training the Next Generation of Performance Sailors At Portland Yacht Club in Maine, young sailors are taking their next step into high performance sailing on the iFLY15. This is not simply about experiencing a first flight. It is about learning to sail a true performance foiling catamaran. Building speed. Controlling flight. Reading the boat. Coordinating as a team. Executing manoeuvres and developing the precision required to keep the boat flying fast and efficiently. The iFLY15 gives young sailors immediate feedback. Every movement, every trim adjustment and every steering input has a direct effect on acceleration, balance and flight. Its exceptional flight stability allows the sailors to focus on the skills that matter in performance sailing: Speed, trim, course, tactics, crew coordination and control. These are the foundations of modern foiling competition. From Olympic classes to the America’s Cup and SailGP, the next generation of elite sailors must understand not only how to sail, but how to control a boat in flight. By integrating the iFLY15 into its youth program, Portland Yacht Club is giving young sailors access to exactly this experience. A platform for progressing from talented youth sailors to the performance sailors of tomorrow. The next generation is learning to fly.

iFLY Foiling Days New Zealand (16 Jan – 14 Feb 2026) In this session the iFLY RAZZOR Pro is sailed in strong, unstable winds with an increasing sea state, where steep chop and cross-waves place continuous load on foils, rig and helmsman. The boat is set up in a high-wind configuration, using a 7.5 m high-wind mainsail on the 8.5 m mast — a deliberate choice to reduce aerodynamic load while preserving balance and control at speed. Combined with the RAZZOR Pro’s active main-foil rake control (MDT), this setup allows precise management of lift and righting moment as gust intensity and surface disturbance increase. These are not beginner conditions. This footage shows the iFLY at the demanding end of its operating envelope, requiring experience, anticipation and refined trim technique. It is one of many faces of iFLY — from accessible foiling in moderate conditions to uncompromising performance sailing when the environment turns raw. #foiling #welovespeed #hydrofoilsailing #catamaran #sailing

iFLY Foiling Days – Auckland, New Zealand (16 Jan – 14 Feb 2026) This footage was captured during the ongoing iFLY Foiling Days on Auckland’s North Shore. The event runs through 14 February 2026, with iFLY RAZZOR Pro hydrofoil catamarans sailed in real coastal sea conditions. Coaching sessions are available. Participation and enquiries: https://iflysail.com/contact/ Heavy-Weather Foiling – iFLY RAZZOR Pro This video documents an iFLY RAZZOR Pro sailed in strong, unstable wind with a developing sea state. Short-period waves, gust fronts and uneven pressure define the session. These are not beginner conditions. The boat is configured for high wind, using a 7.5 m storm mainsail on the 8.5 m mast. The reduced sail area limits aerodynamic load while maintaining balance and foil efficiency as wind strength and surface disturbance increase. Flight Control and Setup The RAZZOR Pro shown here is equipped with active main-foil differential rake control (MDT), enabling continuous adjustment of lift and righting moment while foiling. In these conditions, rake control becomes a primary tool for maintaining stable flight attitude through gust transitions and wave interaction, rather than relying on reactive steering or sail trim alone. Context This session represents one end of the iFLY operating range. From controlled foiling in moderate conditions to demanding heavy-weather sailing, the boat’s behaviour changes with setup, environment and sailor input. This clip reflects the upper limit of that range — where precision, timing and restraint define performance. Design Perspective The iFLY RAZZOR Pro combines carbon-composite construction, a four-foil configuration with automatic and manual control layers, and a refined flight-stability concept. The session illustrates how a high-performance foiling catamaran behaves in an unmodified coastal wind-wave environment, in contrast to flat-water testing, and why such conditions require confidence, discipline and an understanding of active foil systems. Join the iFLY Foiling Days The iFLY Foiling Days 2026 offer on-water demonstrations, coaching and technical exchange with the iFLY team and experienced sailors. For booking, setup discussions or attendance before 14 February 2026, please contact: https://iflysail.com/contact/

Lift. Speed. Control. - #welovespeed Season’s greetings and fair winds into the New Year 2026 Winter Letter The docks lie still, the rigging sleeps, Cold iron hums where silence keeps. Fingers numb, the water dark, Yet every sailor knows the spark. For when the snow begins to fade And light returns to wakes we’ve made, The mind runs fast to lifting hulls, To foils that fly, to driving pulls. We’ve watched the giants race on screen, Wing on wing, precise and keen— SailGP cuts the spray to air, The Cup reminds us why we dare. Not noise, not haste, but control and feel, A quiet rise, a lifted keel. Where wind and water, thought and hand Agree at last, and understand. So take these wishes, clean and true: A winter’s end, a clearer view. When spring returns with longer days, Choose how you move, choose how you play. May next year find you light, not bound, Above the chop, not fighting ground— Living the pull, the lift, the glide, Where sea and sky decide to side. With Christmas greetings, and the best For a new year boldly put to test. #sailing #catamarans #hydrofoil

New Zealand delivers – once again. This video shows the iFLY RAZZOR Pro sailed in one of the world’s most iconic foiling environments: the Hauraki Gulf, with Rangitoto Island in the background, just off Auckland’s North Shore, New Zealand. The boat is sailed by highly skilled sailors — including Olympic Gold Medalist and New Zealand national champion Jo Aleh during a dedicated Masterclass Foiling Session — as well as by an experienced A-Cat sailing couple sending it hard during their very first time on the iFLY. The iFLY RAZZOR Pro is sailed both single-handed and double-handed, pushed in real conditions. The focus is clear and uncompromising: speed, control, flight stability, and confidence under load. With the large rig fully powered, the iFLY RAZZOR Pro demonstrates what modern hydrofoil sailing is about: • sustained foiling upwind and downwind • high-speed runs under load • stable flight through changing wind and sea state • predictable, confidence-inspiring handling at speed A key feature on display is the iFLY Mainfoil Differential Technology (MDT – Rake Control), allowing the sailor to actively manage foil trim and righting moment. This provides precise control when sailing fully powered and at the limit. At the same time, the Flysafe® Intelligent Foil Control System operates quietly in the background, continuously stabilising flight height and pitch. The result: a boat that can be pushed hard while remaining composed, safe, and controllable. Throughout the session, numerous New Zealand sailors are seen foiling fast, wild, and confident — yet always in control — surrounded by the raw beauty of the Hauraki Gulf. No staging, no exaggeration: just real sailors, real conditions, and real foiling. The footage shows the iFLY doing exactly what it was designed for: fast, controlled foiling — sailed by people who know how to use it. New Zealand’s sailing culture, skill level, and unique conditions underline the true capabilities of the boat. In the final minutes, we share some of the magic of Rangitoto Island — the iconic volcano rising from the Gulf. Enjoy the ride. 😎 More information about the iFLY RAZZOR Pro: 👉 http://www.iFLYsail.com/ iFLY RAZZOR Pro — We love SPEED, while keeping CONTROL.

This video showcases the exceptional aerodynamic and hydrodynamic efficiency of the iFLY RAZZOR Pro in ultra-light wind conditions. iFLY achieves stable flight and high speeds where most foiling craft remain stuck in displacement mode. Taking off in light wind is not inherently difficult per se. Even low-tech boats can lift off with sufficiently large sails and oversized foils. The true engineering challenge lies in combining early takeoff with high speed, superior flight stability, and precise control — and maintaining this performance consistently across a wide wind range. The iFLY RAZZOR Pro meets these demanding criteria through: – Active foil control system FlySafe® – Advanced foil design and construction — on a technological level comparable to SailGP, TF35 and America's Cup foils – Mainfoil Differential T-Foil (MDT) — increasing righting moment by actively using the windward foil for downforce. The mainsheet stays tight, using the windward foil to create downforce Unlike conventional designs that rely on brute-force sail area and oversized foil area to get airborne — often at the cost of speed and control — the iFLY RAZZOR Pro maintains efficiency across the full wind range — from light breeze to strong winds over 25 knots and rough sea states. This makes the iFLY RAZZOR Pro truly unique in the sub-35ft category. Comparable performance is only found in the admirable TF35, a marvel of high-tech engineering, and in the elite ranks of SailGP’s F50 and the AC40/75 foiling yachts. On the small-boat stage, the foiling Moth remains a benchmark for light wind performance and agility — though it caters to a very specific and extremely skilled type of sailor. The same applies to the impressive foiling A-Cat.

Review of two Foiling A Class catamaran sailors, talking about their experience with iFLY RAZZOR Pro. (short cut). Foiling solo and double on iFLY. Hear directly from these experienced sailors as they share their thoughts and insights on sailing the iFLY RAZZOR Pro on Cayman Islands - Dragon Bay Sailing Club. -- Alun Davies: Olympian in the Tornado class: "What a boat! it feels like it's meant to be there. Born to fly." "It's way easier than the A Cat. With the A Cat, you are just on the edge!" "It's an incredible boat! And it's just a lot more relaxing ... ... and doing the same speed as on an Acat!" "What a beast! You are praying it doesn't go any faster! Yeah, please don't go any faster!" "And it flies so stable, it just doesn't want to land! -- Phil Cater, foiling Acat sailor, Grand Cayman: "This is my first day on trying out the brand new to the club iFLY15. I am an Acat sailor and this is the first time I have tried this. Certainly, it is a lot more stable. And we are getting up in very light winds. I had a great flight! and a lot more steady flying downwind than I've been doing on the Acat" "It's a lot more flight time." "That was a great, pleasant experience... and she is very forgiving". https://iFLYsail.com/
