Just how large are these big speed machines - 2.23 is your answer

 

That's an ORMA 60; the ocean mosters are twice the size!!!!!  Orange II is also in the video somewhere!

I wonder what the kitsurfer is thinking at the beginning....."don't fall over, don't fall over. Don't fall over..."

The point is, because they could. Admittedly, it did seem to have a few teething problems (sinking comes to mind) but where would we be without such experiments?

do you think the boat that was hit should have held his course instead of turning a bit?

Interesting foiling with no hull....

Very impressive but doesn't look very practical!
