A "flying" Leopard 47 (Robertson & Caine) in 30 knot winds. The boat handled the conditions brilliantly and we were going much faster than the 9 knots mentioned by the cameraman - just look at how the dinghy is bouncing along behind the boat and the speed of the wake! It's a shame that a shot of the GPS wasn't taken at the time. The other cat that comes in on our port side is a Seawind 1000.
This video was taken in the Whitsunday Islands in Queensland Australia and we were heading towards Long Island from Cid Harbour.

  • @MongooseSA Yes all of the hatches were well and truly secured. We would have been doing 15 knots here as well which you can see from the way the heavy tender is bouncing around. I would have loved to have got it out of the water but there were no davits. I had a look at all of your videos which were great - would love to see a longer version if you have them. BTW you will have to rename the names of your videos from just the filename which will encourage more hits on them.

  • Hope your Forhatchs are closed ,, Have a look at my Vid of a Leopard 39 doing 15 Knots down a wave

  • This video was taken during a 10 day cruise  in the Whitsunday Islands in Queensland Australia and we were heading towards Long Island at the time,
