Cosa tratta questo video
A week-long test sail of the Shogun Yachts 43, a full-carbon lightweight performance cruiser, runs from Mallorca to Ibiza and Formentera after the designer, Oskar, hands over the boat at the Palma International Boat Show.Watch The 6-ton hull features hydraulic boom outhaul and kicker, electric winches, a push-button mainsail traveller, a self-tacking jib, a bowsprit for code zero and gennaker, and a carbon mast tuned by shimming.2:58 The Mallorca-to-Ibiza leg covers roughly 17 nautical miles into building headwinds that rise from a forecast 8–9 knots to 17–18 knots on the nose, forcing a late-night arrival under one reef and engine assist.6:00 The boat reaches 6–7 knots hard on the wind and 10 knots on a beam reach in 20 knots of breeze.11:22 The Ibiza-to-Formentera leg of 14 nautical miles runs in 20 knots on the port beam, hitting 10 knots under mainsail alone.24:14 The closing segment announces an upcoming Svalbard departure on 9 June aboard the skipper's own boat, Tessie, with a repaired mast foot, new Raymarine Axiom 2 plotters, and a Rolly Tasker code zero with a furling system.32:25 Shorthanded sailing on a high-performance carbon hull demands careful sail-trim management and crew-comfort trade-offs that directly affect passage speed and routing decisions.
