Team Invictus: Hydroptere's Alain Thebault Interested in C Class Cats

Team Invictus' C Class cat has a 40 foot wing sitting on top of a 180kg boat! It was much admired at the RYA Volvo Dinghy Show earlier this month.

A special visitor was Alain Thebault, from the Hydroptere project. He is joining Jérémie Lagarrigue, who sailed Patient Lady 6 at the 2010 Little America's Cup, in Newport, RI. They have stated their intention to bring a new boat to the next championships here in the UK which would be great for the event; Alain was very much drawn to the Corinthian spirit of the event which we wholly support.
