BirdyFish

A sailing dinghy that can fly/foil, for two to three people.

The BirdyFish is the perfect sailing dinghy to experience sailing in a new way. Thanks to the buoyancy of two L-foils together with a rudder with winglets, the BirdyFish starts to fly when planing, with the hull lifting approx. 40 cm out of the water. As the water resistance on the hull decreases, the speed increases continuously and speeds previously unimaginable with sailing dinghies are achieved - not to mention the enormous acceleration.

WHEN FLYING BECOMES ACCESSIBLE TO ALL

Until now, foiling with sailing boats was mainly reserved for professionals. There were almost no foiling sailing dinghies on which dedicated sailors, i.e. non-professionals, could try their hand at foiling without too much risk. The BirdyFish concept aims to fill precisely this vacuum and make foiling possible for foil beginners too. The design aim of the BirdyFish was to create a safe monohull platform that flies stably with self-regulating altitude and impresses with fascinating acceleration and unusually high speeds for a monohull sailing dinghy.

 


ABOUT THE SPEAKER

As a VDWS instructor, Paul Funke trains prospective sailing instructors on dinghies and catamarans. He runs the sailing department at the Rügen Piraten water sports school in Dranske.

WHAT

As long as people have gone to sea, they have been afflicted by seasickness. From mild malaise, to severe courses, to total abandonment, it accompanies seafarers around the world. Nevertheless, not all people become seasick and for many who do, the symptoms disappear after 2-3 days at sea, they adapt. This adaptation process is the basis of a therapeutic approach that Thomas Bickhardt will explain in his lecture.


ABOUT THE SPEAKER

Seafaring psychologist and photographer, trained sailor.
Grew up in Germany, lived on the Norwegian west coast for almost 30 years. Also worked as a lighthouse keeper on Kråkenes fyr.
Head of the TILLIT Institute and moved back to Hamburg in 2023. Thomas Bickhardt has over 30 years of experience in the treatment of seasickness.

WHAT

The underwater hull... for many boat owners it can only be worked on very laboriously and usually with moderate success. But a well-maintained underwater hull is the guarantor for the value retention of a yacht.
Rust on the keel, leaking rubber joint in the keel-hull connection, damp rudder blade, over-coating, osmosis?
What is osmosis, how can it be detected, how can it be prevented or remedied? Is there a professional answer to rust and corrosion in steel and aluminum?
These are the questions we will address in our lecture and, with the help of clear photographic material, we will provide an entertaining and to the point insight into the professional underwater ship refit with the technical possibilities of the specialist.


ABOUT THE SPEAKER

The experts at Peter Wrede Yacht Refits specialize in yacht painting and underwater hull refurbishment: osmosis prevention / remediation, corrosion protection, blasting and coating. For more than 30 years, everything we do has revolved around protecting the surfaces of yachts. With our team we realize the refit wishes of our customers in modern blasting and painting facilities at our locations in Hamburg, Neustadt, Kappeln and Greifswald.
Florian Brix, our man "at the front", has been part of the Wrede team for over 15 years and has seen just about every refit case. With his expert knowledge and great photo material, he provides insights into the professional Peter Wrede underwater ship refit.
