Well, that's a first. Normally when clubs talk about banning boats on safety grounds I think they are being ridiculous, but that one looks a dead cert for nightmarish mark roundings/woundings. (woundings started off as a typo, but thought I should keep it!)

Let's try it on a weedy lake?
Foiling dinghies will never be mainstream. It's all about speed, and kites go faster more easily. The Moth is all about cutting edge technology and close racing rather than accessibility or even outright speed. |

That looks like the love child of the early attempt at foiling moths in the 90's and an Italian ferry
Awesome pile of junk doomed to fail

Theirs one thing for sure, you will never touch a buoy, the blades will cut anchors first.
Man over board should be a doddle.

A doddle, as in it's easier to lift him aboard in two halves?
