  • I was hoping for it to tip and drown the workers. I hate Disney for what they did to me.

  • THUMBS UP FOR RUM !!!

  • Much faster then the Black Pearl. =D

  • u go !!!!! pirates never die !!!!!

  • E4 has done a chinese in 36 knots so you can imagine the top speed of these boats and they are getting faster and faster, look at the Barcelona world race those guys are pushing insane speeds only double handed ........

  • da kann die BLACK PEARL einpacken !!!!

  • 25 people don't have balls

  • blood runs cold at 0:23 and 0:37 again and again and again

  • blood runs cold at 0:23 again and again and again

  • Fantastic

  • watch my Volvo Ocean Race Epic video

  • its just unbelieveble how fast :O

    niceeeee

  • This is my favorite sailing video perhaps because of the music and speed of the boat but the technical comments below are interesting that I must read up on them. I've only sailed hobbie cats and recently a 35' sailing boat but this looks pretty fast cutting through the waves like it does.

  • Now that is what I call sailing.

  • What boat is that? A sloop? But why two jibs? Im confuses *-*

  • @elegeto It's called a cutter rig.

  • It's the foil on the keel that lifts the boat's hull/water line above the water reducing drag and increasing speed.

  • @jbarrystan The keel foil actually has very little hydrodynamic effect. As a canting keel, the primary function of the keel fin is to support hanging a very heavy bulb to windward. The dagger boards that the VO70's have are what keep the boats going straight.

    As far as the lift and how they fly, these boats are built with reaching in mind. there are ballast tanks in the aft quarters to help move weight. Also the boats are built with a higher volume in the bow to avoid burying of the nose.

  • Comment removed

  • @jbarrystan no it isnt. the boat achieves suffiecient speed to plane.. the kanting keel just alows the boat to increase sail area while maintaining sufficient rightening abilities..zxx

  • WOW! damn it! I wanna be on that freaking boat !!! Sign me up !!! I will do it for free, Dont worry i wont eat much or bother ya all... just let me on your boat ...

  • Huh? "i wont eat much" nah they will rape you and eat you alive, matey

  • Who's "Barry"? Lol!!!!

    Jesus, you really cracked me up, not only you can't make one perfect grammar but so dumb to realized that you are really insulting yourself! Hahahaha!!!!

  • What's amazing to me is how in control and stable the boat seems in those extreme conditions. Thanks for posting !!!

  • 30+ knots. these go over 40 knots.

  • What kinda speed is that?!!!

  • sooooooo fast

  • the VO70 is a best of a machine, but compared to the Maxi's they aint nuthin new

  • Well, that's not totally true. The latest Maxis derive some of their technology from VO70s but the 70s are a specialist boat. They are optimised more for reaching and running whereas Maxis have to be good on a beat.

    The flip side is that maxis should be faster because of their much greater waterline length. It's possible to imagine the 615nm Sydney-Hobart being done in a 24 hr period or less. I think this will happen eventually but I don't know when. There are many variables.

  • well though most of the technology is derived from the Vo 70's many of the maxi's IE "Maximus" boats take the concepts to the next level, and while they are faster due to the waterline length, their proportions are also different, a maxi has to be able to perform the same ability downwind, and combine that with an ability to charge upwind, which in my opinion makes them a superior machine by far

  • While the Maxi's have many virtues and benefit from the addition of hydralic winches etc etc, it is lacking in one key area in my opinion....it has not lapped the world.

    Richard Branson broke his trying to set the TransAt record.

    The Maxi is the dream because she is polished and stabled then treated to the odd sprint.

    The Volvo 70 is treated similarly then laps the world at a canter.

    This is my opinion and I dont expect you to agree with all of it.

  • I think i dislocated my jaw by accident

  • so cool!!!

  • The VO70s are quite different from the 60s. They are actually about 1000kg lighter and carry no water ballast. They have a canting keel anyway. They also have lighter materials for the rig meaning that it has less inertia and doesn't slam, making the boat more sea-kindly and quite bit faster. The 60s were good for up to 485nm/day but Ericsson 4 set a new world record of 602 in the last race.

    This is amazing because catamarans only got over 600nm/day in 2000.

  • and now theres a tri that does 990nm/day, new york to lizard point in 79hrs

  • Jeeepers!

    What's it called? I must look it up.

  • groupama 3, just search it here and you should get a few good vids

  • I will.

    Thanks for that.

  • they still slam ;)

  • Yes but far less so and this is evident by the fact that they don't suffer from delamination to the same degree as before. I realised this after I posted. The boats tend to plow through waves rather than falling off them and this is a function of lower weights in the ends. It has been a target of designers for decades, even during the IOR period. Boats with low weights in the ends are faster and the new rules, which allowed for new materials made the boats faster and more seaworthy.

  • thats sick

  • i like the green dragon that was the best looking boat this year

  • does this yacht still exist. i reckon it was the best looking one there was

  • it does, but its been changed to the puma white "il mostro" its for training, display and corporate sailing. it still uses the pirates sails though

  • Unless there are two Pumas, Puma is actually ABN AMRO2 repainted. On the basis of what you are saying, I think there must be two.

    I don't know where Pirates is. You can see detail differences if youve got an eye for detail. Puma is a Kouyoumdjian design. Pirates is a Farr.

  • thats a volvo 70.

    currently sailing as pumas white mostro for training and display. she has taken some beating, but it can still push the envolope with some great sailing and a full kite.

  • I never thought a sail boat could go that fast? unreal!

  • i hear its run by training 40 Knots carlo222222 say "its not realy fast" but i think it is enugh to sail :-)

  • its a x35 race ship its not realy fast they sail with it just for the fun i think but they made now this around the world of it few years ago ive heard is realy naise cause you see the world and like mexico

  • Is it a Volvo 60 or 70?

  • 70 of course

  • This is from 05-06 when they used 60's

  • I think you'll find the VO70s were introduced for the 2005-06 race. But you are correct: it was that event.

  • Comment removed

  • This is from the 05-06, Correct. That race they used vo70 for the first time, since the race 08-09 Delta Lloyd was one of the boats that raced in the 05-06 and what I know, since I worked with the race, is that Delta Lloyd is a 70. Therefore they used 70's in the 05-06 race. Get your facts right before typing.

  • its a frigin volvo ocean racing boat

  • was that a 60 or maxi?

  • it looks like an amaricas cup racing ship. wow what i would give to sail one of thos...

    i only race 420s

  • the entire ship extends like a cricket

  • Omg ive neve seen a sail boat move that fast; she looks like a speed boat!

  • I'm loving this video! Really want to sail this race!!!! There's an online game of it on the VOR website. It's pretty fun, but pretty lame compared to the race itself. I'm going to sail this race, for sure.

  • que buena bajada de ola.....excelente video!!!!

  • WANTED: girls with Open 60 or Open 70. Send photo of boat.

  • AWESOME!!!

  • IT'S COOL!!

  • thats not an open 60 its a open 70 xD LOL

  • yep, but I am not sure I could handle a girl that could handle an open 70.....not even sure about one with an open 60 to be honest, but I am willing to give it a go....lol

  • hehe okey :)

  • Wanted; Girl friend with open 60, Looks not important. Please send photo of boat.

  • engenering masterpeice.zx

  • Greaaaaat!

  • troppo mattai

  • Big Wave-Strong Wind is Life At The Extremeeeee

  • awesome yacht I wish I had that

  • Ese barco legendario!! con Paul Cayard, ahora pa nuestro DESAFIO 2011!

  • This clip was shot leaving Melbourne, Australia on the third leg of the race. There are ten crew on the boat. Wish I had been a stowaway!

  • where can i get one?

  • nowhere it's a racing yacht

  • Definitely beats the Black Pearl!

  • Hey Very Cool? Are you Here in Sausalito Too?

  • 6 boats its the volvo 2006 round the world race 12 people on each boat finnish line is in sweden this boat came second,this footage is leaving new zealand into the southern ocean,

  • How many people are on the ship? And if this is a race, why don't I see any other boats?

  • 00:12 u see a boat in back

  • Its Volvo Ocean Race, not some small race, so the gaps between each boat are not small

  • there are ten crew and at the beginning of the clip there is another boat in the background. this clip was shot leaving Melbourne on the third leg of the race.

  • i like the song very much!!!!

  • That's amazing... but what does the vessel do now that the race is over?

  • AWESOME!!!!!!

  • omg! that was cool

  • OMG!!!

    So cool :)

  • Great Movie

  • Best sailing video ever.

  • WOW THAT IS FAST!

  • God bless canting keels

  • Right on pirates still do exist

    Polloa or watever they said in the movie

  • thats REALLY kool i want that boat...sorry ship lol if you don't get that then you shouldn't be watching this!

  • cheers to volvo ocean race!

  • Impressive... it's a giant leap from the ships from the 1800's to modern racing sailingships

  • yes and no. The technology of the construction is superior but they are going back to plumb bows and square topped mains. who will have the first gaffer...LOL

  • this is like porn to me..

  • your an ass this is nothing like porn

  • You are right, this is nothing like porn... It is better!

  • the main looks a little small

  • It is reefed because of high winds

  • hey is there anymore Video

    So Awsome :D

  • Any more of what? There's plenty of footage from the Volvo Ocean Race on youtube. And more on the VOR website.

  • what will be to have this boat back in the 1800's! it will make pirates go crazy for this beauty!

  • Pirate's still exist my friend . .

  • Awesome!i´d love to do something like this!!

    5 pionts..all the way!

  • These Volvo 70's with their canting keels are amazing, although the pivot is a likely failure point. You can catch a glimpse of the keel at the 50-51 sec. mark.

  • sooo fucking fast!

  • En concreto, saludos desde Vigo.

    De Vigo partió la regata Volvo Ocean Race 2005. Pude ver estos barcos en directo y la salida. Fue memorable. Esperemos que esta regata vuelva pronto a Vigo

  • Impresionante. Es increíble que un barco a vela pueda navegar a esa velocidad.

    Saludos desde España

  • Everyone loves a pirate.... rrrrrrr!

  • This was very uplifting. I could almost feel the sea spray in my face.

  • I will die for this.

  • I WISH I WERE MEMBER OF THE FLEET

  • looooool

  • Where's Rum?????? :O

  • ur so funny!

  • I love sailing...C-scows w/ spinnakers are awesome

  • my favorite ship awesome video!!!

  • what a cool boat! Were did u get it

  • Yarr! but not as good as ye black pearl!

  • Hot Diggedy Damn--YES--how fast were they making and could they have a little more sheet up!!? I've watched this 7xs now and that boat was surfing!! The front third was clear on some occasions. I've raced a bit local on boats not even fast--made my knees weak & my mouth dry--a fast boat makes this old girl sigh w/satisfaction....tanks chile, you done won sexiest vid hands down. Hot Diggedy Damn!!

  • Un real "lets see have much of the hull we can get out of the water" wish i was there mmm

  • funny you say that - i was just at the site today looking at other videos of power yacgts great site

  • yes you are right - they have a whole bunch of information on this over splashvision. loved this video - there are millions more at [splashvision. com] and you should check them out

  • If memory serves, this video was shot off the coast of Austrailia. The Black Pearl was doing 38 knots. That's about 45 MPH! You could water ski behind the boat (if you could survive the waves)...

  • i would love to be on that boat

  • good like..........

  • mmm...

  • this is the coolest video. I live in daegu,south korea.

    I can't see ocean in daegu.

  • Whoo - eeeeee ! when the waves are just right and they are sailing "downhill" - the speed just goes through the roof, awesome fun.

  • oh my - splashvision - tons of boating and water sports videos - great find

  • graet music but abn amro are mach better

  • Great Video.... i wait VOR 2008/09
