DETAILS

Single handed sailing catamaran. Powered by a 4-element 11 metres tall rigid wing. Rigid wings offer much more efficiency than a conventional sail but they are also less practical and much more complex to build.

Extensive use of CFD for all the boat in order to optimize the aero/hydro performance of wing, platform and appendages. Built entirely at Balance-AN facilities using pre-impregnated composite materials. Structures analyzed by FEA to get the best strength-to-weight ratio.

She does not belong to any sailing Class in particular but she could be recognized as a ¾ scaled down C-Class catamaran created to sail single-handed rather than double-handed. The project was born with the target of creating a light and refined boat, with a lot of attention to detail, technologically challenging for sailing in the most efficient possible way.
