We took our big Regal out on the Bay Sturday to see this thing come under the Golden Gate. She had about 30' between the masts and the bridge deck. This rig is unreal, you can't quite tell the scale of it unless you get up close.

very cool (for a sailboat )

I read an article on that thing. Lots of cool "ghee-whiz" techie stuff on board

Not much of a blowboat fan either but this one kind of stands out. Plus he's got a pair of Deutz TBD 620s to push it along when the winds not blowing.
