New Cubed - First Supermaxi Since Speedboat

[jonas a]

Buy are a fuckin advert before you waste my download..

There was actually some interesting piece of information. Apparently they removed both daggerboards from the boat before the trans Atlantic record run to save weight

I'm pretty sure that Clean has been cut off from the Comanche program after being one of the first guys to run with the Adultery story.

Firstly, we never ran anything about adultery, though we did link to stories by other publications about that. We heard rumors, we asked the parties, and we ran the response we got from Clark. Secondly, if I'm cut off from Comanche that's because no one is working on it. Many of the guy on the boat are friends and will be friends regardless of what happens with any billionaire or program manager, and if they get new guys, some of those will be our friends, too. Thirdly, always remember this about pro sailors: Today they are with Comanche, tomorrow they are with Ran, the next day they are with Wild Oats.

But many of them have been with SA for 15 years.

I'm sorry Clean but I don't buy that- if that was the case would there have been total radio silence on them breaking the TransAt record?

Forgive me if I am wrong but I saw nothing about it on the front page of SA.

that would be sad if they didn't publicize the trans - atlantic record . probably one of the biggest things to happen at the time in the sailing world . iirc it was almost 24 hours faster. maybe because it wasn't a multi ? and the " offender " wasn't even on board .

Putting aside all this bullshit Comanche has been a revelation IMO unlike Bruce Kirby's negative opinion. To knock 24 Hours off the record is a massive achievement. I think it will stand for a while. The next boat to beat this will most likely be a foiler of some description. Kudos where it is deserved.

Beginning to wonder if commentating the AC wasn't the only reason KR wasn't onboard....

You may have changed your name thread police but you are still a wanker!

Have been enjoying Abbos silence since WO was rolled.

neither the ed or me put much stock in a boat 'setting a record' that was beaten more than a decade ago in a smaller, lighter, cheaper boat with a quarter of the crew

Personally I put a lot of value in outright records, gender records, and in-race records. No time for in-class ones like mono, powered, sub-xx feet, etc.

From behind.

I like the boat though. All arounder.

Clean - Indian had a pretty amazing record run. Deserved some love. #don't be a hater

Rolled before retiring.

Let's face it R88 would've toasted them.

Hope they kept that old bow section.

nice wildboats.

JC, your delusions are as strong as ever I see. I thought you were seeking help?

FWIW they did keep the old bow and stern. There are hanging from the walls of the HIYC.

 

[jack_sparrow]

Bow and stern stored at HIYC...

Well at least those WOXI kitshe bit additions to HIYC are faster than the concrete they are bolted to.

Comanche's sprit sticking out of her new shrink wrap home was a nice touch.
