Father’s Day drone

I didn’t get up on the foil during my Father’s Day session, but it was still great.

This was the first time my wife took over the controls of the drone and filmed me!

Here is a shot of us while I’m getting ready to go out.


My wife playing with the drone!
For the first time in a decade I rigged up my vintage NP 6.5m V6 that has been one of my favourite sails of all time. Here are some photos of me sailing it in 1993.

Excited to use the new 6.5m V6 Neil Pryde in 1993
Gybing the Astro Rock in 1993!
That 25 year old sail is super light. So fun that I just couldn’t get rid of it and now the low camber induced curve it has I think will lend itself to foiling. Apparently you want a deep draft down low. Stay tuned for the first time I get out on it in more than 7 knots.
