What an amazing boat.

Interesting they are trying a solid wing design now.

And I want to fly a hull on this boat

Yeah, What a monster!!! It would take me a week to come down from that rush.

Just thinking......If a big puff took the windward side up......way up.......and you fell. Hitting the water flat from that height would give a new meaning to the word pain.

Great video.

there should be 2 slightly used ones available in March. i would expect they would cost around 3-5 million

Nothing a Sawzall and a roll of duct tape couldn't fix! And you could have extras for your friends! πŸ™‚

I love the evolution of these machines. Sadly this cat would exceed the size limits on my beach not to mention my budget.
