I worked on the water in the Toronto Harbour all summer and watched a member from RCYC fly around on his tri foiler. I chased him around a bit on my coach boat that thing was flying! There cool boats, its a shame no other manufacturers/designers came out with similar foiling multi hulls for mass production.
