Secrets of the FPB Hull Shape – A Video That Shows and Tells All

For a link to the video which show and tells it all

click here.

We have  assembled video from the last 20,000+ miles of cruising with FPB 78-1 Cochise to show you in detail the secret formula we’ve used. From surfing at 20+ knots in 50 knots of wind, to jogging into huge standing  waves, crossing the Pacific backwards against the trades, and running down the Nova Scotia coast at a steady 14 knots, we will explain in detail how the FPB concept works. It is all here.

    This is fantastic and makes me love the FPB all the more. But I can’t buy one as you are not making anymore so why continue the sales hype (even if it is the best)?

    Hi David:

    We keep getting questions, new owners through the brokerage market, and folks just curious, so as time permits we write up a post or edit a video. We have a more time now that we have finished building, and we enjoy the process.
