Frequently Asked Questions

Find all the questions on our page Q&A

Can you foil on waves ?

Of course !

A flat water is always easier for foilers.

Nevertheless, our foilers perform very well in swells and remain stable. It just requires a bit more technical skill.

How do you handle starts with foils ?

Birdyfish are handled just like traditional dinghies, but with foils !

With the foils raised, we use a beach trailer to launch the boat. The exception is the Birdyfish S, which has launch wheels built into the hull.

At what speed do we take off ?

Birdyfish take off in o knots of wind.

As for boat speed, the Ioda and the Birdyfish S start to take off at 6.5 knots, and the Birdyfish at 8 knots.

What is the sailing speed ?

It depends on several factors, but you'll generally be sailing at speeds between 15 and 20 knots.

J'adore le Birdyfish ! Ce week-end, c'était la 4e fois que je naviguais en Birdyfish, mais c'était la première fois que je naviguais seule sur le Birdyfish S. J'ai appris à naviguer sur un Sunfish dans mon club de voile local en juin 2025. J'ai hâte de naviguer à nouveau sur le Birdyfish ! C'était tellement amusant. J'adore le défi que représente le fait de se lever sur les foils par vent faible. Et j'adore la sensation de voler au-dessus de l'eau par vent fort. Le bruit que font les foils lorsque vous...

“What a pleasure to be able to foil despite my advanced age on a reliable and easy boat! The big plus: being able to share these moments in complete safety, whatever the level of the crew member. Looking forward to next season”

Quel bonheur de pouvoir foiler malgré mon âge avancé sur un bateau fiable et facile ! Le gros plus : pouvoir partager ces moments en toute sécurité quelque soit le niveau de l'équipier ou de l'équipière. Vivement la saison prochaine.

“Addictive, flying on the water with this ease is simply brilliant. A sturdy boat, as easy to set up as a classic dinghy or catamaran. To try it is to adopt it. To date, I've sailed it 30 times, and even with beginner crew, it's a blast! I still haven't found the limits of this very accessible boat.”

Addictif, voler sur l’eau avec cette facilité est tout simplement génial. Bateau robuste, aussi facile à mettre en œuvre qu’un dériveur ou cata classique. L’essayer c’est l’adopter. A date 30 sorties au compteur, et même avec des équipiers débutants cela envoie ! Je n’ai pas encore trouvé les limites de ce bateau pourtant très accessible.
