Portage test of Ultimate Florida Challenge Boat

This is my first portage test of my UFC (Ultimate Florida Challenge) boat. see watertribe.com about that 1200 mile race around florida which includes a 40 mile portage.

This is my biplane rigged folding catamaran design that I'm building and testing using prindle 16 hulls.

My plan is to use this boat for the 300 mile Everglades Challenge which is the qualifier for the 1200 mile Ultimate Florida Challenge (ufc). For the ufc I'll use a different hull design, maybe a F16 design or possibly an A-class design.

Love your creativity! How did you do?

I've changed from a catamaran design to a proa configuration and models of that can be seen on my youtube channel here. I will still use this method of towing though but the bike must store in the boat and I'm designing for that.
