Yvan Bourgnon and Thibault Vauchel made a great performance on their Nacra F20 for sailing the longest distance in 24 hours : 344 miles !!They were equiped with our accessories such as our new sailing helmet, very light, or our new boardshort, to get a great style on the beauch !

Congratulation to Yvan Bourgnon and Karine Baillet who crossed the Manche last Wednesday on a Formula 18 catamaran (AHPC Capricorn C2) ! they realised a very nice performance with a time of 7h42min to go from Plymouth UK to Roscoff in Brittany (around 100 miles). The biggest part of the trip was windy and the 2 sailors were constantly at the trapeze ! They could test in hard conditions our harness and enjoyed its comfort and the maintain of the lumbar protection belt.
Once again well done Yvan and Karine !!

Thanks Morgan for your help in trimming and testing our new Hobie Tiger F18 sails. This boat is not dead! And is performing very good, killing the W cat sometimes!

Morgan will help us to develop new sails and accessories during his frequent sailing sessions.

Morgan Lagraviere is running for selection for Olympics game sailing on 49er.

Manu is really into cat’s sailing and following the F18 tour in France. He is part of the testing team and help us to make better products.

Have a look to his nice blog: manuvoile.skyrock.com

The goal was to get one style of cover for all Tigers in order to have a nice/clean feeling on the board parking.
