J109 "Going to Red" beating to windward had a fine line to thread the gap between Cape 31 Shootgun and the Corbt 37 Impetuous on day two of racing of Cork Week 2024. Race 6 ended up being the trickiest race of the day with the wind getting light and variable towards the top mark before a 30 degree shift on the last beat turned the race on it head. The race committee did a good job to finish the IRC 1 boats at the top mark to limit the damage from the variable winds. The team at Bottom Up Boats hope you like this short clip from our week of racing at Volvo Cork Week 2024

► Full test in Multihulls World N°196: ► https://www.multicoques-mag.com/essais/catamaran/hh44-un-catamaran-hybride-et-plein-d-astuces The smallest model in the HH range manages to reconcile a very “performance” vision of cruising (all-carbon construction, a sleek sail plan with a 62’ / 19 m mast, and deep daggerboards in the SC version) with a hybrid propulsion system. The HH44, with its 3.2 kWp of solar panels, 50.4 kWh of Lithium-Ion batteries and two 10 kW electric motors, is capable of covering 18 nautical miles at 7.5 knots in full electric mode. The catamaran will be equipped with a very efficient hydro-generation system for charging while under sail. Diesel engines give total safety by doubling the means of propulsion. At anchor or in port, the transoms fold down on each side to create bathing platforms. All sail controls are managed from the aft helm stations. Inside, the nacelle is generously airy. The port hull is home to the Owner's suite. This model comes in an Ocean Cruising version with classic fiberglass construction, aluminum mast, and skeg keels, while the Sports Cruising version incorporates carbon throughout and daggerboards. ► TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Builder: Hudson Yacht Group Architect: Hudson Yacht & Marine Ltd.
