How to foil the F4 Falcon 🦅🚀
Downwind through the Francis Drake Channel, the F4 Falcon comes alive.
On board, Shannon Falcone breaks it down — getting the boat to “pop” onto the foils is all about timing, pressure, and precision. The team are constantly talking, feeling for the moment when speed builds, the hull lifts, and everything shifts.
It’s not just power — it’s coordination. Trim, angle, communication. All in sync.
And when it clicks…it look pretty good, right?! 🤩
