I need to get me one of those "Outremers"!

Reality check: Max speed means nothing. I have seen max speed of 60 knots on my GPS due to random GPS fix error. Judging from the wake and other visual clues I estimate speed through water at around 13-15 knots sustained. Yes you will see jumps surfing down the swells, but that's also to be expected in any boat.
Still, it looks like a good ride!

That's awesome!! It reminds me of my youth boardsailing solo off of Sauble Beach on Lake Huron in brisk 30 knot winds. Love it!! It makes you feel alive!!

Cool!

It ll be interesting to see any multihul sail on high winds but closehauled to watch how design behaves. Especially on short chop. I am a Trimaran frmer owner (Brown 38 offsoundings old design low profile) anyway, I know liitle bit about multihulls and they great on broad reach, but on close hauled reach is the real test for any design which I d like to see....

Hi Guys,
This is an Outremer 45ft Catamaran sailing down wind. Quite common for a catamaran of this size to do these speeds and the apparent wind speed would only be around 10 - 15 knots. The reason he has spray coming off the port bow is not so much the pressure of sailing but because the bow is pushing into the swell in front. The bow sprit out the front is used to attache a screacher or over size genoa. Cheers

22 knots is 44 kmh and thats about 27 mph

imagine a pitchpole on a very bit catamaran...OH SHIT!!!!! lol

... and steady air.

I would not expect it to be easy to flip, its obviously far more stable than a Hobie cat 16 (which I sail) and I've gone out in 32mph steady winds, and it wasn't heeling at all, it doesn't take stupidity or balls, just brains and fast reactions :)
