Yes, it's definitely a purpose built craft designed especially for Checkpoint 1 at EC.

Doubt most other potential buyers would need the ability to reduce beam like scissors does.

But the wing sail, wide platform and foils might definitely interest some frankenboater types.

My opinion is that the platform provides the stability needed to effectively operate a wingsail shape, as it doesn't heel that much keeping the leading edge/chord at an ideal angle. I suspect that Randy's probably got a canting rig for that thing, too.

Not seeing the wing up close, I would wonder what way-cool control lines he's set up. Likely it's a one- or two-string deal which controls several aspects (draft profile, angle, etc) with a quick tug.
