By the way...

Does anybody really still think that Mirabaud was the first stressed truss sailing craft without a substantive hull... on foils?

Last pic I was of Mirabaud it was inverted with of the crew draped over one foils in abject submission. Wonder when we'll se the first container foiler? Now that would be a sight!
