Well, it's been a year now since we first slipped Fusion, and its been an interesting year. Learning a new boat is always difficult, but the challenge is part of what makes sailing such a fascinating past time.
So, I thought I'd make a small video of our first 12 months. If you look closely, you might spot a couple of SeaBreezers lurking :)
I hope you like it!

Great boat and love the video. What was the best speed you got? Looked like you could tow a water skier :-)

Thanks guys, I'm not real good at this video thing, but I'm getting there.
Hi Trek, max speed to date was 22knots. I'm not very proud of that though, I had too much sail up, so it was more of an accident than design. Wind speed was 40+ knots.
Our max speed when being sensible is 20 knots to date, actually 19.8 recorded to be exact.

Awesome Shagster - what a weapon!
Great video mate, I hope Fusion has been and will be, something that meets all your dreams!
