Where in the videos was the Hobie 18 with a kite?
Fortunately, there were no Americans involved in this speed sailing event, no American cats flying 2 hulls, or American trihulls flying 3 hulls - such as coming out of the water on Bruce foils as noted by Wouter... (thanks Wout).
Naw- Americans would rather run buzzing jetskis and sail obsolete sailboats!
Signed, the owner and driver of the only hydrofoil-equipped flying cats- Hobie 18, Hobie 16 and A-cat- in the Americas, in fact- the entire Western Hemisphere!
