looks like 1.5mm for the boat and 2mm to race it. I know where a beautiful 47 Apache hull is for 40k. In Dubai for the class 1 WC races they were testing the air lingus sailboat team , I heard 12mm us budget for the test season.

I need to get a ride on one of those things in rough seas. ......without the dangerzone music

damn that apache is flat out gettin it!!

the guys on this blowboat are suicidle... look at the size of the swells about 1:30 in

No pictures of the 'pache's trailer??

what happens when the wind dies...I willadmit, the guys and gals that race in the americas cup work their butt off and really rock through some weather..but I just dont feel that you're comparing apples to apples... just my .02 though

thats sick....but i wanna do it.

Boats and Big water...may not be apples to apples but their both extreme...thats for damn sure..

That sailing looks awesome! If I could actually afford one of those boats, I might actually get back into sailing!

I had a Hobie 18 with the magnum wings, when there was a blow that boat was a blast...some of the best times I've ever had on the water no doubt.

both pretty awesome, but that apache is gettin it on hard!!!!!!

Both sailboat and Apache videos are awesome!

I even spelled sailboat correctly out of respect!

Not Panther's!!!!!!!
