Gonzalo Redondo’s latest Formula 18 catamaran design was first tested as a prototype at the St. Barth’s Regatta 2024, helmed by Ruben Booth. The boat showed immediate promise — and delivered on it.

In July 2025, the first production unit of the design made its international debut at the F18 World Championship in Noordwijk, where it claimed first place overall.

This marks yet another milestone in the longstanding collaboration between Redondo Studio and the Polish high-performance yard Exploder.
