MOD70 Capsizes in Indian Ocean

September 14, 2015 – British Indian Ocean Territory

The MOD70 Race for Water, while on a global environmental mission, has capsized in the Indian Ocean. On her way from Palau to Chagos Islands on Saturday night, the trimaran flipped 90 miles southeast of the Chagos Archipelago.

Latitude 38 - 'Lectronic Latitude

These MOD toys seem pretty tippy. I have seen a handful playing turtle.

I like them anyways! Possibly the best sailing boats around.

Great discussion on the other foums, looks like a huge marketing backfire as they are now also contributing to the very issue they were pretending to be concerned about,...less rubbish in our Oceans
