Malolo

Malolo approached us because their high aspect foils did not meet the quality standards required by a top-tier, high-performing race team. The 4-meter foils needed a complete strip back of the existing gelcoat, followed by recoating to the precise designed section using Epoxy Graphite. To achieve this, we reached out to the original designers of the foils and obtained detailed drawings of the boards along with their NACA sectional profiles. We then converted these technical drawings into a comprehensive 3D CAD file, which we provided to our trusted partners at Antigua Boatbuilding and Cabinets. They expertly cut a precise template using their CNC machine. Using this template, we were able to fair both foils accurately to an optimal, race-winning form—so effective that just one week after we returned the upgraded boards, Malolo went on to win the multihull class in the prestigious RORC 600 race.
