My father worked on Groupama 3, he was one of the mechanics, he wouldn't go on board for records but he was preparing the boat, and when she capsized near NZ, he had to go and bring back the pieces, so rn I have a 3-4m section of her mast in my garden...

Lucky you i would love that. I would put it in my house

L'hydroptere has been around for a few decades now, still inspiring, and most of the fleet going to foils, what more the speed when foiled. Love it

The number one ship. What a design. Interested to learn more. Thanks for sharing.

To be udpated ? New flying trimarans are now ready for "la Transat Jacques Vabre 2021" : Actual Ultim 3, Sodebo 3, Banque Populaire XI, Gitana 17, SVR Lazartigue...for the moment, there are not as fast as the "Hydroptere" but they can cross oceans. All are marvels from France, like the 5 mentioned in this video.

The sails who go faster than the wind itself.

Hallucinant wow!!! 💖💖💖

Outdated video, numbers off but still awesome boats and some nice footage.

you are right , and Lending Club 2 is Groupama 3 lol, so 2 same boat at the begining of the video lol lol + Groupama 3 have the actual world record ( this is IDEC )

Great video ! You should actualize now ;)

Would it be possible to create a trimaran drone that could circumnavigate continuously, generating it's own power?

I'm sorry but Groupama 3 done often 40 knots during training day and do 46 knots to speed many time during round the world record ( and still have this record ). 46 knots = 85 km/h ... And Lending Club 2 is Groupama 3 ! ... sic Forget about also MOD70, they are far under Giant. Where is MACIF, Sodedo etc ?

Hobie Trifoiler, 72 km/h, is faster than Groupama 3

What speed machines,watch out for pitch polling✅

85km/u!!!! Prima. Dankie for a great video. When will this kind of sailboats be on the general market? Normal sailboats go about maxi of 8Knt (15km/h). Cats maxi about 18knt (33km/h). Merci.

I don’t know! I’m not a producer of this boats ;)

If lending club and groupama 3 look similar its because it's litteraly the same boat it was commissioned in 2006; beated the circum navigation record twice, first under groupama colors in 2008 and a second time in 2016 unde idec sport's color with a mast ten meter shorter, it also won the route du rhum 3 edition in a row: in 2008 as groupama 3, in 2012 as banque populaire 7 and in 2016 as idec sport, a truly impressive machine that can be cited as the ledgendary boat of the racing world like the pen duick series, pierre premier, orange 2 and so many other

3:34 two hulls far out of water. Maybe add two more small hulls further out to balance further.

Hidroptere es un avion

Well, it looks like they got the main problems out of the way. Like the deck area between hulls, gone! No more push over airspace in full tilt. Yet, I wonder how a 70 ft boat with a 45 ft beam can ever come to mean something to the yachting world, other than a cool essay in ?

Take the Corsair 970, it is bare-bone (think camping) inside but brings you everywhere flying. Another concept is the Neel 51, pricey but more than enough room for the average motorhome family who has some money lying around. Two examples which hopefully show you some inside in its possibilities .😎

Are they sailing in 70 kmh wind?

@simonrano8072

3 жыл бұрын

There is no direct relation between wind speed and boat speed. Sailing is not based on using a tail wind to push the boat forward but using a side wind to creat a forward force like an aircraft wing. The larger the sail, the stronger the force, the faster the boat and the lesser the water/air resistance, the faster the boat. As the wind is sideway the force is still the applied even when the boat is faster than the wind. The foils almost cancel water resistance by getting the boat hull above the surface, allowing higher speeds. They generally dont intentionnaly go to 70 kmh wind areas and if they face such conditions they generally reduce the sail to avoid snapping the mast of flipping the boat.

And half the gauges don't work. The upholstery is shot... Needs paint. But you get what I'm saying..
