We finally can say that we have a kiteboat!
Over the last few weeks, we've connected a small kite to our boat and our pilots were able to make their very first run.
Launching a kite from the sea has been quite a challenge and we've had to work hard over the last few months to validate a launch procedure that is safe for the pilots, team and boat, and then dare to cast off for the first time.
From the very first tests using our chase boats to the first launch with our record boat, we tell you all about this fine-tuning process in details. The road is still long, but the journey is worth it. What a feeling to finally watch her sail on her own!
Next stage: putting on a bigger kite and getting faster...stay tuned!
