Throughout the French Championship, the races followed each other in a wind that varied in strength and direction. The Befoil 16 CARBON quickly broke away from the other boats and the catamaran and its crew won 4 races, each with a comfortable lead.
WINNER OF THE RAID DES OISEAUX 2023
The Befoil F16 CARBON then participated on April 16th to the “Raid des Oiseaux Nemea” organized on the Arcachon bay, on French Atlantic coast. The tour of the “île aux Oiseaux” (Birds Island) saw the boat finishing in real time in front of the F18 of type Goodall Akurra and Nacra MKIII. The Befoil 16 CARBON won by being the smallest boat of the competitors with top speed over 20 knots.
EUROCAT 2023
The weekend of May 1st saw Befoil F16 CARBON winning the National F16 of the” Eurocat” in Carnac (Brittany, France) also winning the offshore Raid in her category
With all the races taken into consideration, it was critical to be fast around 3 buoys as well as for the long-distance offshore raid. The Racing Team had a great regatta winning (HOW MANY?) races as well as the Eurocat raid. During the raid, the Befoil F16 CARBON quickly broke away from the other F16s and finished in contact with the first F18. The conditions were perfect, sunny and windy, and the Carnac Yacht Club organized this edition of the race in a masterful way.
