Although we are no strangers to refit work, the decision to cast our own keel - from design to finished product is definately one of our crazier projects! A task that felt huge when starting, took up all our free time during spring. If you are further interested in our DIY keel casting, check out our channel or check out or playlist https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=st9sX4bne1k&list=PLHgGaw1dpS58b1uu5Wrq5HHw01zU335fv where we have gathered all our keel related videos!

► Based at St. Augustine in Florida, Front Runner Boatworks is well known in the United States for its center console Open boats, and though the range which extends from 33 to 47 feet is comprised mostly of monohulls, there are two powercats, the 37 Cat and of course the 43 Cat that we’re looking at here. This model was presented as a world preview at FLIBS in Fort Lauderdale back in November, and then we got to discover it at MIBS in Miami. The 43 Cat has a chined hull and bulbous bows designed to guarantee smooth and comfortable performance at high speed even in big seas. The deck plan has been designed primarily for big game fishing, but the manufacturer offers multiple customization options, such as the HTX version featuring an enclosed helm station, wraparound cockpit seating and sleeping accommodation. One last snippet of information about Front Runner: the shipyard has announced the launch of an imposing 55 Cat as early as this coming summer. ► TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS: Builder: Front Runner Boatworks Length: 43’ (13.11 m) Beam: 12’4” (3.76 m) Motors: 4 x 300 to 4 x 500 HP Fuel: 1,000 US gal (3,785 l) ► Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to Multihulls World's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld ► Log on to our website to discover over 600 multihulls tests!

In September 2019, American Magic’s DEFIANT became the first AC75 to both sail and foil on the waters of Narragansett Bay, Rhode Island. Since then, the first of two AC75’s to be built for the U.S. America’s Cup Challenger has been in a “shakedown” phase, where the complex and cutting-edge systems have been tested and refined. Also part of this groundbreaking period has been the shakedown of the human element; the training of some of the world’s first AC75 sailors. American Magic’s team of grinders, trimmers, and other specialists have been recruited from the best of Olympic, foiling, and previous Cup classes, but sailing onboard DEFIANT is unlike anything else.
