Organic evolution, or something...

The fleets been busy, even if the blog hasn't been...

Another Mach2 should be getting wet soon at Grafham, whilst the rest of the fleet have been either upgrading sails, foils or whole boats.  Changing or upgrading the kit seems quite easy, the problem seems to be what should you buy...

However the difficult bit to upgrade is still the pilot (in my opinion!).  This has been partially resolved though by our own willing & helpful fleet member Matt who's made these excellent moth "how-to" videos showing all the secrets of foiling gybes and tacks... now I just need the time/practice to make it look so simple!

Foiling Gybes-


Foiling Tacks-


Taking upgrades and changes to the next level though is another fleet member James.
Having been inspired by the moth bug, he's starting his own home build, should be interesting to follow, good luck!
