Real fast sailing boats fly. Must see....

Hi everybody. This is awesome. Ever seen sailing boats that fly almost 53 knots? The boat nuts among us probably are familiar with those. I've seen it the first time and I'm quite impressed. The boat starts lifting up from 15 knots on. Check this out.

That looks like crazy fun!!!! I'm going to do the same thing with my 1945 Old Town sailing canoe next week.

Maybe you should convert it to a dug out canoe. :D Old Town sounds good too. Any pics of your mahogany beauty?
