Moth (dinghy)

HOW TO RIG A FOILING MOTH
Set the foils off to the side, safely out of the way of the boat and any spectators. Rig sail and spreaders. 1. Slide the mast into the sail, keeping the mast above all the camber inducers. It is easy to get the mast past the lower cams. You'll have to shove it past the top two one at a time. 2.

Wingsail crumples on a foiling 50-foot catamaran during SailGP training
The boat was foiling at about 70 kph (43 mph) when the wing measuring 24 meters (79 feet) failed. Video from the boat appears to show the crew beginning a maneuver. While one crewman ran to the jib, which began flapping, another crewman scrambled to the base of the wing and then back to the starboard cockpit, narrowly avoiding the falling debris.
