What a race it was the 37th America's Cup! Congratulations to Emirates Team New Zealand for their dominant victory! But did you notice the innovations that helped them in the races? A new double main sail sheet system added even more controls and performance potential to the boat, but making it even more complex. However, they also introduced #electronic automatic controls to the boat. For instance, the mast rotation was connected to the cant system to make it easier to the crew to get the full potential of the boat. Check out Mozzy Sails video to see an in depth analysis about this. https://lnkd.in/ezzJQ-sm #Electronicsystems are gaining traction in the biggest #sailing competition in the world, but you can also use them in your boat. Contact us to know more. Now that the teams have to agree upon the regulation for the next #AmericasCup, do you think that they will keep pushing for more automation and electronics or will we go back to simpler and more manual boats? What do you prefer? Let us know!

Foilchemy, hydrofoil engineering
Sobre nosotros
Foilchemy aims to support the decarbonization of maritime transport by developing new hydrofoil technology and engineering services to catalyze its implementation. Above take-off speed, hydrofoils lift the hulls of vessels above the water surface, considerably reducing drag. A drag reduction means a lower thrust requirement and lower emissions. It also enables the use of clean propulsion for a wider range of vessels. Two are the challenges for the expansion of hydrofoils, safe & efficient foilborne in rough sea conditions and its life cycle cost vs express cargo & light passenger displacement vessels. Foilchemy has developed a new hydrofoil technology and design tools to improve safety, efficiency, and life cycle costs. Foilchemy may strongly reduce the R&D costs which companies are assuming today to implement foils, by sharing our experience in developing an autopiloted sailing hydrofoil boat from scratch. We offer our clients to become part of their engineering teams for a given time, to transfer our design know-how, engineering tools and technology

Last week Raúl Fernández Garda finished his academic period at Escola Politécnica de Enxeñaría de Ferrol, with the presentation of his Master’s Thesis “Fluid-Structure Interaction analysis (FSI) of a moth dinghy #hydrofoil”, co-directed by our colleague Manuel Fraga Seoane. From Foilchemy, we want to congratulate him for his hard work and for the result obtained. Good luck in the future, Raúl!

🙌 Thanks #SailTeamBCN for giving us the opportunity to share our knowledge and experience with you all. It was a huge pleasure! AlbertTorres, Marcos Fernandez, Martin Wizner, Conrad Konitzer, Jaime Framis, Antonio Torrado and Neus Ballester....BIG THANK YOU! ....and to be honest, we were very impressed with your technical questions.😏 We hope to see you at the next Cup!! Take off! 🤙

Absolutely impressive Sail Team BCN!! Sixth place in the #UniCredit #YouthAmericasCup. No owned boat, very short time to prepare, a very tight budget…. But against the odds, a super talented and motivated young team has lead our country to fly wing by wing against the big #AC teams. Sois muy grande equipo!!!! Congratulations Luna Rossa Prada and American Magic.

Foilchemy is technically assesing Sail Team BCN. Last week our manager Eloy Rodríguez Rondón, had a #trainingsession with the #youthteam. Sail Team BCN are really challenging us. Super smart #youngsailors. We are very honored to support our national team. Aupa Equipo!!! #foiling #americascup #simulator

The Louis Vuitton Preliminary Regatta has ended, raising an important issue: electronics reliability. Several teams had complete system reboots or electrical failures that caused them to lose several races. Now that electronics are a key factor for the boat performance, they are being pushed to the limit to gain any possible advantage. But, as we have seen, this often comes with the cost of reliability. All #hydrofoil and electric boats are also reliant in #electronics but the needs are very different. Make sure to take into account the #reliability, availability, maintenance and safety (#RAMS) of your boat's electronics. In Foilchemy, we have developed our autopilot systems with an industrial use in mind: focusing on having minimal downtime and ensuring the best overall experience. Hydrodynamic design, structural and mechanical analysis, electric system, and electronics: all are taken care of by our team. Get in touch if you want to know more. Do you think that teams will solve their reliability issues? Let us know!

🇪🇸 Desde Foilchemy no nos gustaría dejar pasar la oportunidad de felicitar al equipo de CES Uvigo por sus recientes éxitos en la #MonacoEnergyBoatChallenge. En una competición internacional y con rivales experimentados con varias ediciones en su haber, han conseguido una meritoria sexta posición en su primera participación. Y todo esto, a pesar de problemas técnicos de última hora y un calendario muy ambicioso para llegar a la competición. Esperamos volver a veros competir en las próximas ediciones (en la que también esperamos ver a los amigos de GFS - Green Foiling Spain) y os deseamos la mejor de las suertes. ¡Ánimo rapaces! #foil #barcoelectrico #haycantera 🇬🇧 From Foilchemy, we do not want to miss the opportunity to congratulate the CES Uvigo team for their recent successful results in the #MonacoEnergyBoatChallenge. They got a well-deserved sixth position in their first attendance in this international challenge, facing other teams with several editions of experience. They have achieved all this, despite last minute technical problems and a very tight schedule. We hope to see you participate again in the coming years (and we hope to see our friends of GFS - Green Foiling Spain) and we wish you the best of luck. ¡Keep on going guys! #foiling #electricboat

Our first time in Southampton was so exciting! We were really surprised by the amount of #boats in the water. Furthermore, we could enjoy the stunning scenery with the #ferries carrying people to the Isle of Wight and the big container ships entering the port. #Foiling technology is not super common in the #workboat sector yet, but its presence is growing continuously. Indeed, it is very valuable to attend this kind of events and to have an on-site feeling of what the industry is looking for. Seawork 2025, we will be there!
