| The world record for human powered water craft belongs to a hydrofoil created by a team from MIT: http://lancet.mit.edu/decavitator/Vi...sNoImages.html People also attached hydrofoils to kayaks and waterbikes and achieved high speed. The problems have always been to sustain the effort required for the speed and to maintain control over the craft. BTW-- Why does it say in this ad that you can "walk on water" with this invention? I don't see the connection. Yoav
