HYDROPTÈRE in San Francisco

San Francisco Bay, California, United States of America 37º40’30″S 122º15’54″E


Photo assignment for l’Hydroptère.
Like a wild animal circling the territory waiting to pounce on it’s prey, l’Hydroptere DCNS is currently in San Francisco training on the Bay while they wait for the ideal weather window to attack the Transpac record from Los Angeles to Honolulu. These Northern California sessions have been extremely beneficial for the team and allowed Alain Thébault to share his incredible magic carpet with colleagues, media repesentatives, and members of the SF sailing community. These photos are some of our favorite from the past week, featuring guests such as America’s Cup luminaries Paul Cayard, CEO of Artemis Racing and Luna Rossa helmsman Paul Campbell James. Record setting kiteboarder Robbie Douglas has also been invited onboard for several runs, the only man to achieve a faster speed on the water than Alain and his team. With the way things are looking, the existing Transpac record has much to fear from the soaring wings of the mighty hydrofoil.
