Article Summary

An Australian defence scientist has created the design for a revolutionary sail craft, based on a wing-borne hydrofoil concept, which he believes will break the world sailing speed record.

Appearing to gain its influence more from flight design rather than sailing the craft looks like a cross between an aeroplane and a sailing boat; imagine a catamaran with a beam and no trampoline and a much smaller second hull. Underneath this smaller second hull is a scythe-like hydrofoil and is the only part of the craft that doesn't lift out of the water.
