I didn’t realize Nacra 17’s were foiling boats.

Re: These guys are almost as good as peelskid

Interesting that (at least then) the NACRA didn't foil upwind. iirc, someone figured out how to do it or at least found the golden conditions for it and kicked everybody else's butt. Skittish boat for sure - at the World champ level and leading boats are blowing up.

The audio is crap but here's the clip and you can read more here: https://nacra17.org/on-hyperspeed-woman-overboard-and-the-meaning-of-steep-learning-curve/ I think it's the same German team that foiled out in the video above just short of the finish line
