I don't think she's a D28!

I bet it's an F32 :wink:

I guess you are right. There was a blue hulled DF, so I just quickly jumped to a wrong conclusion.

Think this is the DF:

Looks like the same boat to me.

Ivan, that's definitely a DF.

Blue boat is definitely a DF.
Look at the stern and the aft ends of the amas.
No question in my mind it's a DF.

not really happy

these are two different boats. even the sails are different.


On this picture we can even see the main sail sheet rail, on the top of the back cabin roof

I guess, this F32 is a very nice one which has been built by his dutch owner.

Definitely 2 different boats.

One is a DF, the other is an F boat for sure.

DF's flying hulls

One is an F-32, 'Tresoor', built by Tom and Cora Siemerink.

The other is DF-28 ''Triple blue", property of Jaap de Geus.

I happen to own a picture of Triple Blue flying the hull coming of a wave. Can't post it here unfortunately.

looking at these pictures, I'd be curious to have comparison between all these boats performance wise.

Any clew?
