Well what do you think - looks completely bonkers to me but it would be awesome to bum a ride.

I think foiling beachcats are coming to stay. Don't think foiling will become as standard as spinnakers on beachcats but will become fairly common.

I'm told the Nacra 20 FCS won't be shipping till spring of 2015.
