Videos from the B & B Messabout 2014



In the above video, Robert and I attempt to chase down the CS20 MK3. She is a fast boat!



Later the new MK3 CS20 sucessfully completed a self righting test with ballast tanks full.



For comparision here is the self righting test done at the 2013 Messabout in the Core Sound 20 Mk2 that recently completed the North Carolina Challenge 2014.
