I went sailing with sam from the the moth vid yesterday and he said it has taken 2years to get to the were he is now with this foiling. Very impressive thought. I want one but I have a bit of a weight issue 91kg is not the best for a moth

The boat we were out on is the out95 also a very cool bit of kit www.out95.com

Mr Isis, nowt much, except the daggerboard box will be the right size for a 66014, and the gantry will be longer... should have it done in a couple of weeks.

I wanted to do that last week when it was published on TheDailySail but folks here without subscriptions wouldn't have been able to see it...

I think the video really shows how controllability of the foilers and ability of the sailors have both really come on very quickly.  Not so long ago we were seeing videos of people occasionally managing a gybe without coming off the foils, but in this vid. he makes it look a complete doddle (that's not to say that it is, but there appear to be no ride height control issues during the process).
