    THE IMOCA thread, single/double handed & TOR

    I mean the longitudinal alignment of the rudders. As in two rudders being slightly out of alignement will provide positive or negative lift. Imagine the pitch control of a V tail aircraft like a Fouga Magister or a Zéphyr

    i think with this kind of rudders they will be able to have a bit more pitch stability. By regulating the alignement of the rudders you can generate lift (rudders like this \/ more lift rudders like this /\ less lift)

    Team France, AC-37

    The technology in ocean racing is also cutting edge. But indeed those are two very different fields of sailboat racing

    Oh well thank you. Seemed rather obvious to me that this is a new builds list.

    SailGP

    Yes that is bullshit. I know sailgp has a bastardized version of the sailing rules but you can't expect fra to gybe to give room to nzl to avoid Gbr, evenwhen you're only trying to avoid contact and leeward/windward doesn't apply anymore. Fra was right to absolutely avoid contact at a 90 degree...

    Looks like L'Occitane but with chines. It's probably maxed out when it comes to the scow aspect (there is a measurement limit but i don't remember who it works.)

    https://t.co/bE0mN1pPAy Selon nos informations, Paul Meilhat a bien trouvé un gros sponsor qui lui permettra d’être sur le Vendée Globe 2024 sur un Imoca neuf. Si le nom du sponsor n’est pas encore officiel, (on parle d’une grosse marque de cosmétiques française), il s’agirait, concernant le...

    Yes i think an upwind start would be much better for next year.

    BTW that is an "unofficial" 24h solo record (it was "fake solo" and no official recording setup on board)!

    Trophée Jules Verne 2021

    50.7 kts top speed and a 880nm/36.6kts 24-hour run in fake solo on the way back is pretty good! To bad they hit something... I'd love to have the stats on hitting UFOs. (1 hit in how many miles average).
