the corks on the bow are a bad idea, they will likely plunge into a wave stop suddenly you stop and the apparent wind swings aft causing alot of sudden capsizing moment

Everybody is an expert. I see your channel has zero content. How many experiments have you done investigating this?

To tack, try turning off the wind (to a broad reach) to build some momentum before swinging it back into the wind around. If the rc controls will let you, bring the sheet/sail in simultaneous to you turning into the wind and you may have a better time tacking without getting caught in irons. (I guess you might have to wait for the spring to give any of this a try).

Yeeeees - I sailed a Hobie Cat 400 miles from Lands End to Lowestoft - so thank you for the sailing tutorial.

Those hulls are designed to pop up out of the water, I am pretty sure those corks would have made it more prone to capsize, since they would drag and tip it when your cat started leaning a bit, and add weight too. Great video footage, thankyou.

have you ever sailed one? They might have been designed to pop out - but they don't - and it capsizes. My version two has much bigger outriggers. They work fine and save it every time.

Well if you can’t sail!!!

You were afraid of capsizing, so you added more weight to the top of the mast and you added 2 trippers to make sure that the front end dug into any waves that were in front of it. kudos

What's your solution oh wise one?

@@greenstripeypaint I guess I would go with a shorter mast to put the center of effort lower, and if you are going to add something to the front, extend the hull shape forward 4".

You can counter the tendency to pitchpole/bury the bow by adding a LOT of rear mast rake - yours is straight up and on any catamaran this is a recipe for disaster. I'm certain the Joysway instructions don't say anything about that...

I understand the version 3 has some anti-capsize trick built in that lets out the sheets if the angle gets "interesting". Not sure if it works as I can't find a video of it in action.

Yeah, they are known for lower quality boats that are cheap, couple of hundred dollars...but if you are a total beginner without a budget, that is ok. ;)
