G'day,

Pretty sure it is Revolution 2, an 11m/36' cat owned by Jim Wilkinson. Revolution 1 was an 8m/26 footer which sailed directly into the wind at a better vmg than it would have under sail, and crossed the English Channel and was cruised around the Dutch waterways for a month or so.

I met Jim 25 years ago, when I was building a 9m/30' wind turbine cat just down the coast from him. It also went directly into the wind, best speed being 6 knots into 20 knots of breeze.
regards,

Rob
