CANNOT Believe How GOOD It Looks 🥹

The Window Design That Made These Boats Leak
Cooper sailboats can be good performers, but their large acrylic windows were not always engineered with enough frame overlap. Once the adhesive begins to fail, water can quickly enter the boat and damage the surrounding interior. It does not necessarily make the boat a bad purchase, but it creates ...
Nacra Evolution SUV – The F18 for Real Sailors?
Do you REALLY need a decksweeper mainsail on a modern Formula 18 catamaran? Today we're sailing the Nacra Evolution in what I'm calling the "Sports Utility" F18 configuration — with a custom non-decksweeper mainsail and shortened daggerboards. But how much performance do you ac...
A Great Bluewater Boat With a Leaky Reputation

Can a 25-year-old Tornado Catamaran still perform in strong winds? It's time for the first proper high wind test of Bad Boy 94. The goal isn't to set speed records—it's to push this classic Olympic Tornado catamaran hard enough to reveal every weakness before racing. Joined by Johnny...

How to Sail a Catamaran Through a Narrow Channel
Getting a beach catamaran out of a narrow channel without an engine can look impossible... but with the right technique it's surprisingly manageable. In this video I take a Hobie 16 through a tight buoyed channel using a series of controlled three-point turn style tacks. Along the way I'l...

Can Less Sail Make You Faster? | Hobie 16 Test
Can less sail actually make you faster? It sounds completely backwards... Most sailors assume that removing the jib from a Hobie 16 would make the boat slower. Less sail area should mean less speed... right? So I decided to stop guessing and find out. In this video I head out into strong wind co...

Now You Can See Why 😮
Watch the full episode here: It's been a looong journey since we started building the boat. When we think back to those early days, Delos 2.0 was this design on paper and a vision in our heads. We had big dreams of how it would be, but it was always a bit abstract. But the one thing we knew ...
Leaving a Tight Mooring in a Hobie 16… BACKWARDS!
Launching a Hobie 16 solo is one thing. But first, I have to sail backwards between the yellow buoys without snagging one on the rudders. A bit of weather-vaning, some very twitchy steering, and then I've got myself a proper runway. Time to launch. More catamaran sailing, tutorials and high-...
90lb Crew. 25 Knots of Wind. How Fast?
90lb (40kg)crew. 25 knots of wind. How fast could we go? I took 14-year-old Joyrider TV superfan Ridley out on the Hobie 16 in 20–25 knots of wind to see just how fast we could push it. The result? 23.81 knots — my fastest double-handed speed of the season so far. But it wasn't all smooth sa...
