SHATTERING THE WORLD SAILING SPEED RECORD

Starting with a dream, we built a boat capable of sailing at 80 knots (150kph) solely powered by the wind. With this unconventional boat, we are pushing the limits to invent the sailing of tomorrow.
First attempts are planned for 2025.

SHOWCASING THE OUTSTANDING POTENTIAL OF RENEWABLE ENERGIES

By breaking a record using only wind power, we want to prove that mankind is capable of achieving technological feats that go beyond the potential of fossil fuels. 

Our goal is to bring the innovations developed for the record to maritime transport, competitive sailing and hydroelectric power generation.

CONTRIBUTING TO
RESEARCH AND TRAINING

Thanks to a partnership with EPFL, we collaborate with research laboratories and contribute to training a new generation of engineers. From this organisation has emerged an ambitious team with a unique balance between youth and experience.

SP80 SMASHES THE MYTHICAL 100 KM/H BARRIER

SP80 SMASHES THE MYTHICAL 100 KM/H BARRIER

The SP80 kiteboat has reached a top speed of over 58 knots, or 108 km/h. This new personal best makes SP80 the second fastest sailboat ever recorded, behind Vestas Sailrocket II and its 68.01-knot top speed. While peak speeds are not used for official world record certification, this performance confirms the boatʼs potential: SP80 is now faster than the most advanced sailboats in the world, from the AC75s of the Americaʼs Cup to the F50s on the SailGP circuit.

Navigations: a day on the water with the team

Navigations: a day on the water with the team

The team now spends most of its time in the south of France to be on the water as often as the conditions allow it! How does a day of testing unfold? How long does it take to set up a run? How many runs can we fit in a day of testing?
