First a driver sits at the green turn arrow, then a second driver fails to yield when I get the green.

Thks to 📷 Modx Catamarans for sharing. ➡️ Swipe 1 vid & 9 pics ▫️ The MODX 70 is a new concept by Océan Développement (involved in the MOD70 offshore racing designs). The aim is full autonomy and zero carbon emission in operation. ▫️ This company is searching for the sweet spot between a sailing and a motor yacht. This 70' yacht will have 12,000W of solar, hydrogenation and a 230 kWh battery capacity. ▫️ Naval architects : VPLP Design Interior design: Océan Développement / Pierre Frutschi Design Capacity: 8/10 passengers + 2/3 crew members Speed target: 16kts in 15kts TWS ▫️ An interesting innovation is the Aeroforce© Wing sail: Inflatable, automated & retractable 2 x 125 m² wings give a +35% power gain compared to traditional sails. Think of it as a glider on the ocean. ▫️ The MOD70 will be 100% electric with 2 x 40 kW engines. ▫️ Océan Développement is based in Lorient, with a 2000 m2 office and workshop space, in the heart of the Brittany offshore racing and marine project ecosystem. ▫️ ▫️ ▫️ #design #yachtdesign #futuredesign #superyacht #catamaran #innovation #luxuryyacht #tech #technology #sustainability #ecofriendly

I don't often post other designers boats, but I make an exception here. Russell kindly asked me out for a short sail just before the start of the Race to Alaska (R2ak). It was ideal conditions for his boat and Russell sailed it perfectly. No real surprise considering the miles he has done on the boat. Certainly the best proa in the world (I have sailed a couple of others by world famous designers that were no match for Jzerro). Speed was steady in the mid teens.
