Hey new user, first post, should be an interesting one for you all. 

I won't have the money to build this, but was wondering what you all think so I thought to just share with the community.

The idea is to take a the new Americas Cup sailing monohulls, merge it with the concept of the russian lun class ekranoplan GEV. Basically it is a plane that doesn't fly and only hovers above the water on a cushion of air. 

Right now I believe there is a ton of load on those leeward foiling arms to keep the whole vessel airborne and this idea would help the vessels float and keep the vessel level by using the wings instead of the foil (more surface area, larger resistance and symmetrical) Could stop those airborne flights that cause the vessels to capsize. 

Probably be a bit crazy for match racing, not like these vessels won't be - but I was thinking about longer races and when we hit the speed wall. This system I think, would be more stable and take into the aerodynamics of the new foiling sailing vessels vs just the hydrodynamic approach. 

Im not an engineer, just a curious mind. What do you think? 

Looks interesting, like your sketches, they get the idea over well.

Probably best to post on the:

https://www.boatdesign.net/ as someone on that site may well have thought about this already

Nice sketching. Pretty sure that’s what Blue Arrow was trying to achieve. 

I prefer the Leeward foil on the end of the wing, on your current AC inspired design it isn’t going to take too much heel for the wing to crash into the water. Deeply immersed T foils with incident control have to be more efficient that rules influenced ones we have now that require aerospace computing. Also the windward one can give a little bit of negative lift.
