A New Top Speed for the SP80 team trying to beat the World Sailing Speed Record! What was it? Watch the reel to find out. ▫️ Join the quest at @sp80record ▫️ "The foil is key to breaking the record" - explains Benoît Gaudiot, COO and SP80 kite pilot. “We wanted to quickly test a simplified version on the water and learn as much as possible before finalizing the design of the record foil, which is more complex and costly to produce."  ▫️ "Now that we have data from the boat at high speeds, we can refine our simulations and launch the production of the final foil with much more information than we had a few months ago!” ▫️ The boat will return to the shipyard in September to improve safety systems around the pilots and integrate the new foil. The initial goal is to break the 55-knot barrier (100 km/h) between October and December. ▫️ The team aims to make an first official record attempt before the summer of 2025. ▫️ #world #sailing #speed #record

We had just finished installing our Auto Pilot and took her out so we could do the calibrations. Well, while we were out, we couldn't help but take her for a "spin" - please forgive the expletive at the end, I just couldn't contain myself! If you enjoyed the video, please give it a thumbs up! Subscribe at http://youtube.com/svrocinante We're a Live-aboard, Sailing Couple and we started this journey almost 14 years ago, when we purchased our first sailboat, a Catalina 30 TRBS in 2003! A lot has changed since then and we hope to share our ongoing adventure with the world! As we start to add content, you'll find that this is much more than a sailing channel, it is about embracing life & finding out how little you need to be truly happy! We'll share beautiful sunsets, gorgeous vistas, amazing food and most importantly the exceptional people we meet along the way. So join us as we continue our journey and you just might decide to get out there yourself - if nothing else, we're sure to make you smile!
