Hydroptere
Registrace 28. 09. 2010
Alain Thébault and the Hydroptere Team are the origin of different sailboats:
- In the 90s, they designed and built the first large flying boat, l'Hydroptère, at Airbus, which is the double world record holder for speed sailing in 2009 at more than 50 kt of average speed (95 km/h).
- In 2010, as part of a partnership in Switzerland, they designed a smaller model, l'Hydroptere.ch, now holder of three speed records on Lake Geneva.
- In 2012, the Hydroptere team was the scientific advisor of one of the challengers for the America's Cup especially on dynamic and flight stability for the AC 72.
- At the beginning of 2014, Alain Thébault, Anders Bringdal and their team of engineers from the aircraft industry - led by Philippe Perrier (Dassault Aviation) and Maurice Prat (Airbus) - launched the project Hydroptere Rocket, a planing sailboat whose objective is to increase the outright sailing speed record to 150 km/h (80 kt) average over 500 meters.

l'Hydroptère arrived in San Francisco Bay a month ago, when the America's World Series regattas resumed between the Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz Island. During several weeks, the flying sailors shared the technology of their "flying carpet" with the American public and their training sessions with guests on board. A few hours before the start of the next ACWS regattas and of the Fleet Week, ...

A friend of mine had the honor of sailing the last leg of this extreme vehicle from California to Hawaii. It was very sad to see it abandoned then stripped. This video preserves the days of glory for the crew and the fans of this magnificent creation. RIP Hydroptere!
Sou maluco por esses barcos
Ca fait 10 ans qu'on en entend plus parler de l'Hydroptère que le grand Eric Tabarly avait baptisé par ailleurs avant de nous quitter... à croire que ses concepteurs ont tournés la page. Il était sensé battre des records de traversée des Océans mais depuis les premiers test en mer c'est le silence radio me semble-t-il. Dommage.
Co to za krypa Francuziki?
Just incredible.
sublime !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
que de sacrifices pour en arriver là ! RESPECT Mrs
vous êtes les ROIS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What happens when the tail foil runner hits a giant tuna or a whale
Hownice. ! Hownice !
Would it be more stable if the hull and sails were shifted rear of the foils? Is there a reason not to do this?
Follow you those who love you? I had that a lot of following or stalking rather,, but where was the love, in your own pockets? Pull them out first. I will be stalking you in here really, so not a follow-up. Spiritual siege.
You say sailing. I say flying.
Nice too faster
The hydro foil goes on the mast not the drive area. Keel the mast and headsails to to move faster. Pivot point blade keeled mast and headsails relative to the sail area. Then lower the foil when you can use them .
¡Qué maravilla!
Wow shame u not here in nz mixing it with the americas cup boats a definite buzz
Quel sensations folles ce bateau volant bravo pour cette détermination.. Le rêve devient réalité..
There needs to be a water world 2 and this boat needs to be in it
Молодец !!!
Something that I want to know and still is not very well explained on the official page: 1:56 That horizontal "wing" in which everybody is sit, it helps to provide lift and reduce the lift that the foils should do? Or not? Or maybe in order to achieve that, that horizontal "wing" should be pointing to the apparent wind?
Can we see it cruising in a storm, 10 ft waves? LOL!
That's what the Maxi-tris are for. L'Hydroptere is about pure speed.
She sailed to Hawaii and back.
Mega top go go go
It is docked right now in Honolulu right outside my living room window (44th floor). Can not wait to see her under sail.
my understanding is that she is abandoned/for sale
@@weatheranddarkness They ripped out on the electronics. I don't get it, very un-French.
This vessel been impounded in Hawaii Oahu, it is now on AUCTION for 8.000
Alexandre Alves You should buy it! This boat made history! It was foiling well before what all the others....
It look like a cross- bow estee de tabernack collisse
Amazing! Very inspiring :)
This is the future of sailing. No longer will it take weeks to cross oceans. I foresee cruising sailing vessels with the ability to retract the foils during rough seas and then to extend them and go 60MPH during fair seas. Thus allowing unlimited range, high speed, durability and comfort all in one. The conventional sailing vessel has the durability, range and comfort but lacks the ability to travel at the high speeds that would allow weather evasion and fast crossings. The next step is to take this technology to a cruising vessel. Imagine the ability to cross the Atlantic in 3 days and sail the Mediterranean for a month and then return to the East Coast USA in 3 days!
Why not design ultralight fairings for the two struts, mostly thin Plexiglas with CF frame to streamline cover where crew sit? Protection and some comfort for them on long crossings like LA to Hawaii, and maybe less drag compared to humans with flappy protective clothing...
somebody must have liked the movie Water World
Bravo ! Je découvre ce bateau que je ne connaissais pas, énormément de travail de recherche et d'expérimentation, c'est impressionnant !

i think he means a small engine to go ou of the harbor
Magnificent! Inspiring exciting and beautiful. My best congratulations to the whole team, sailors and engineers, and thanks for showing a memory of my hero Eric Tabarly.
Across the Atlantic in under three days. Wow that is some target!! That's got to be averaging over 35 Knots! I have been following this amazing trimaran for a number of years, I hope they have a crack at that record.
