And I always thought that trimarans never heeled. Very impressive.

Trying to get away without paying for the marina fee - not berthed - walk along the mast and jump off?? /forums/images/icons/wink.gif Jump back on when finished?? /forums/images/icons/laugh.gif Or were they trying out an emergency stop?? /forums/images/icons/cool.gif

This was deliberate. Ian Farrier (designer of the Corsair and F trimarans) was doing some testing in 1990 on righting. The lower float has been flooded, otherwise it would be floating out of the water.

They just better hope that marinas don't introduce an ugly tax! What a money spinner that would be! If they had discounts for the pretty ones, then those with the old girls would have it made. And their boats too
