I can't tell whether the boat has dagger-boards or a canard. It doesn't look like it, but one of the shots (on trailer) shows something (spare?). If not, it's going to skitter to leeward. It also seemed to shift to "hull-form" stability (photos, again) at a pretty low wind speed. Fun idea: I'm glad someone is playing with it for all of us to watch, but I don't think that this would be my choice.
