  • Incredible onboard video from nine external cameras running a breaking bar with 10 foot waves and caught in 20'+ standing waves in the Gulf Stream the FPB 78 is put through two extreme tests. Steve Dashew explains what is happening from a design and handling standpoint.
    Included in the video are trim, steering and powering settings as well as suggested techniques for dealing with these extreme conditions. Note, the conditions shown are potentially dangerous, and not recommended if they can be avoided.

    This vessel appears to be the ultimate cruising yacht ever. The most well thought-through design I've ever heard of. Well done!

    Very cool. You're running the rig like a surfboard with the tail/stern submerged for the greater ruddering effect and propulsion from the wave pushing you down the face and _OUT_ of the wave instead of up and over the crest/falls pushing the tail around. Very cool to see it described and demonstrated by such a vessel.

    I just spent two days at FLIBS and it solidified my feelings about how a yacht should be; functional, practical and efficient. If I had the money I my first choice would be a FPB 64 and my second choice would be an Artnautica LRC 58. Great video.

    Surfski riders and designers understand all about the importance of the stern being able to depress into the wave behind to enable controlled surfing

    Now that's a vessel built for purpose. Is the opening scene when the stern is swamped under also known as a following sea? Fantastic tuition, all the same.

    That is intereting about the height of the bathing platform, i thought to get a balance boat was more about waterplane than buoyancy.

    My experience is on sailboats with deep keels. What I don't understand about motor yachts is they seem to be shallow-draft, top heavy disasters waiting to happen. Look at all that stuff above the deck on your boat! But they do fine. Why?

    • @aceeastman7261
      @aceeastman7261 4 роки тому +5

      Proper design, ie; center of gravity is below center of buoyancy, and form stability

    • @NeilBraun
      @NeilBraun 4 роки тому +1

      It's funny reading your comment, my first thoughts watching this video was that this boat performs very much like my sailboat. She's a Cape Dory 25 and surfing large waves at ten and more knots is intensely exhilarating. Having water come over the stern has caused problems, but those are solvable and avoidable.
      Thank you, you helped clear up some things I was curious about.

    • @DashewOffshore
      @DashewOffshore  4 роки тому +8

      It is the result of a low center of gravity, coupled with a great deal of form stability when heeled. The FPB 78s have a greater range of positive stability (inverted!) than any of our sailing yachts.

      Running up toward the Bay of Islands the breeze guilt into the 50s in the gusts, blowing a steady 40 or a touch more at the end. And it was not the size of the waves but their steepness that made things interesting.
