BACK ON THE WATER

#TEST 3 OCTOBER 2026 1 MIN READ

PB526 returns to the water for the first tests of the new season, with new setups to explore and data to collect

On Saturday, October 3rd, we were hosted by Canottieri Lecco for our first on-water testing session of the season. Sunny skies, warm temperatures and light winds provided favourable conditions to get PB526 back on the water and start evaluating the boat’s performance.

TESTING & DATA COLLECTION

During the session, we tested the Slalom, Speed Record and Endurance setups, collecting data and experimenting with different trim configurations. These tests allowed us to assess the boat under different conditions and gather useful information to support the development of PB526 throughout the season.

Testing had to come to an early end after an issue was identified within the motor tower. We returned to work immediately to investigate and address the problem, with the goal of getting PB526 back on the water as soon as possible.
