Underwater area of sailing boat on video is covered with so called blanket. Last time bottom was cleaned about year ago. The idea is that on the so-called blanket, marine growth will be less caught, and what gets caught will be easy to remove. The result of the test is that a lot of marine growth was collected, which even the high-pressure washing could not remove. It had to be removed with scraper.

With their focus on sailing life and the sailing lifestyle, the team's passion for yachting is inspiring, and their experience with j109 delivery and yacht racing is unmatched. Whether you're a seasoned sailor or just starting to explore the world of boating, this epic sailing victory is sure to leave you in awe of the beauty and thrill of sailing on the open waters, and maybe even inspire you to join a sailing vlog or sailing channels community to learn more about the sailing life and yacht lifestyle.
We caught up with Team Loustic SuperSonic waiting out the weather at the John Wayne Marina. They told us all about their hull and deck coming apart. The deck is attached with pop rivets and many of them failed along one side for about two meters of the seam—when they realized the boat was acting sluggish, they looked inside to see at certain tacks, waves of water coming in filling the boat with about 100 gallos of water. They have since repaired it quite nicely and they're drying off all their gear, ready to go on. The boat otherwise handled really well.
