Gives me hope yet, can honestly say it's not happened to me yet, plenty of other exits, but none quite like these..

I've done most of these at some point. Best one was when the screws holding the straps pulled out, so I was left with a foot over the edge of the boat and my head underwater. My crew didn't notice, (concentrating on the jib, like a good crew) and just shouted at me to luff up, as my brother was overtaking... Then collapsed laughing when she looked round, rescue coming a poor second to amusement. We married a few years later...

What I like about the Vago one is the crew trying to hand the tiller back to the helm, rather than grabbing his hand!

The Flying Phantom One Design - the first production foiling cat...

It would be a little difficicult even for a non-sailor to get a Phantom or Laser confused with a foiling cat, wouldn't it?

The boat looks excellent. How long before the 1st Rotomoulded foiling cat for Wildwind or the like?

Does it only have one foil on each hull?  The rudders look like straight daggers, and I can't see anything else.  It does look really well sorted though.
