This a cooperation project between Kai Hopf, Duotone windsurfing Sails designer, and Pio Marasco. Both Pio and Kai have been designing fins for more than twenty years, and together they have developed the fastest racing fin ever. Made from CNC shaped G10 with a very thin new profile and custom flex that provides early planning and lots of speed. This new profile applied was designed to avoid cavitation at very high speeds. A new colouring material for pigmentation of the G10 that is absorbed by the resin has been used creating a very smooth surface that helps increases speed.

It is a foil or wing under water used to lift the boat’s hull until it is totally outside the water.
The stabilizer increases the pitch control and the lateral stability, which make this foil ideal also for beginners.
Unproblematic handling in all conditions. Little rake at the base provides more performance in planing and acceleration. The homogeneous transition to more rake in the soft top gives the fin good ride comfort, agility and smoothness.
Finne mit sehr gutem Kompromiss aus Angleiten und Drehfreudigkeit.
Designed to lift off early in minimal breeze, the Navigator is a perfect hydrofoil for beginner and intermediate riders. With its voluminous shape and powerful profile, the front wing is tailored toward a comfortable, safe flight at low speeds. To give rider more control over the flight and reduce the severity of any wipe-outs, the foil is mounted on a 75 cm aluminum mast.
Carbon layup for both the front wing and tail stabilizer minimizes flex and weight. All foil components are assembled with 8 mm countersunk hex-head stainless screws that are resistant to corrosion and mechanical damage. The Navigator comes equipped with a plate mount as standard.
