Fin de lété place à lautomne la saison qui verra le Gitana Team sélancer à lassaut de son 1er Trophée Jules Verne.
Gitana trimaran video. Fruit de près. Le 17 juillet dernier jour de sa mise à leau à Vannes le Maxi Edmond de Rothschild faisait son entrée dans la légendaire lignée des Gitana. Gitana foiling Trimaran full transition setup from floating to fliying mode.
Fine-tuning and breakage coloured the first few years of this incredible machines journey as it naturally takes time to spearhead. The giant Gitana 17 trimaran towards the Jules Verne Trophy. This trimaran flies over its foils at more than 40 knots.
Few of us knew that GITANA was the name of the Rothschilds first family yacht. She is 45 5 hull and with 6 4 bowsprit 51 9 158m LOA and 36 11m beam. Ths might be the best technical sailing video ever made.
Unidirectional glass beams tied into bulkheads and armas. Built by Grant Wichman she has a strip plank cedar cored main hull armas are duracore. In 2017 she was extended with new transom and cockpit.
Pour marquer cela des nouvelles imag. Already published but worth seeing again. At the end of last week just a matter of hours was all it took for the Gitana Team to go from the satisfaction of a record time for its descent of the Atlantic aboard its flying maxi-trimaran to the great disappointment of discovering damage on its rudder which definitively put an end to its Jules Verne Trophy record attempt.
For my sailing mates who understand such love Ave Gitana is a Crowther design 93 40 trimaran built in 1991. Gitana 11 -. Key to fine tuning the new craft fitted out by Baron Benjamin de Rothschild with a view to her participation in the next Route du Rhum these past few weeks sailing offshore.
