Working or playing? When you love what you do and do what you love there's often no clear line between the two. To design and build outstanding boats, understanding every aspect of the interplay between hulls, wind & water is crucial, as is first hand experience of all the systems and components that bring it to life and the potential effects of minor changes on any of these. Up close and wet on a mighty machine is one excellent way to do that and is exactly what our youngest team members have been doing this season. Design and build have teamed up in the persons of Luca and Pete, and they've been joined by others in their age groups from the yard and local sailing scene, as well as friends from Highwater Sails. D-1 is a well proven weapon and was the training ground for Daz himself who raced across the Atlantic (and won!) in a boat just like this, Clarke's Active Air, the 3rd Dazcat. They say passion diminishes over time but here it just seems to gather momentum. We'll be bringing you much more on D-1's season soon. In the meantime enjoy this short, and you decide whether they're working, playing or simply trying to survive!!

Made out of a bicicle pump! The idea is to use the one way valve that every bicicle pump has on its piston, to improve the performance of the gun, instead of using loose pistons as usually. I know the difference may not be crucial but it's for the sake of well-design. The piston is too heavy but seems to prove the theory. At only 75psi it shoots a 0,2g 6mm plastic bb through a steel (yes, steel. This is Europe) coke can. Filled with water it pierces the can and leaves a mark on the other wall. Air leak detected, soon to be fixed. UPDATE 20150719 Air leak was fixed with teflon tape. Cannon was intended to be tested to 10bar / 145psi. At 8bar / 116psi the back bursted off the main body, propelling it against a wall, with the cannon hitting at a great speed. Result is a bent cannon. Speed doesn't seem to have decreased but precision has been seriously affected. Plans for now are to test the energy at 75psi (like this teaser shows), then cut the cannon to the unbent part (which is about half the lenght), glue the back permanently and test energy again at 75psi to see the relationship between cannon lenglt and muzzle energy. Afterwards, with the back end fully glued, repeat tests at 116psi / 8bar and hopefully get the same energy as full-lenght-cannon @ 75psi. If not, test pressure until total burst, or the desired energy achieved. Advise is greatly appreciated. Thanks for watching! A FewFriendsFace production Likeyright FFF2015 All likes reserved
