Sailing: SWITCH to a foiling boat NOW!?

[@barrysmith9154]

I saw you out last week I was out on my old Raceboard. It looks good.

[@GordonjSmith1]

Wonderful.

[@jonemmettsailing]

Many thanks!

Feels like it’ll be similar to learning a laser. I first sailed optis, rs fevas, and other boats but the transition from those to the laser was still a big learning curve to get good at the laser. Don’t know if you feel the same about this.

[@jonemmettsailing]

I think the learning of a new skill is half the fun!!

[@JamalJohnson177]

@@jonemmettsailing100% agree learning new boats is great fun. But with foiling the price point is a bit of an issue with growing the fleet, a few friends have bought waszps as they are a bit cheaper than a moth but personally I am a bit unsure about spending that much on a boat that is still going to be secondary to my laser campaign for a while.

The Waszps have a great fleet.

Looks like fun! Get more crashes into the edit :-)

[@jonemmettsailing]

I think we put all the crashes in - I only went for 1 gybe!

[@MartinHoffFoilingSailboats]

@@jonemmettsailing lol looking forward to the many crashes ahead :-)

[@jonemmettsailing]

@@MartinHoffFoilingSailboats I think this is why @xulijia11 is wearing a yellow crash hat!

Before any class can be Olympic it needs World Wide representation, so it is accessible to all MNAs.
