Anybody know of an expert on multihull foiling? If so, let me know who they are and how I can get in touch with them.

Seems like things are going that way in the very near future.., guess we should learn something about it.

There are several projects in the works here in the US.

Check here for some names to reach out to.

Hard to disagree with either of those recommendations. Both would be excellent. Macca, where are you based now?

Rick, there are two containers of A-cats coming in with Z boards for foiling in the next month or so. Both are coming to the Southeast with 4 eXploder boats arriving in St Pete and 7 or 8 DNA boats in North Carolina. I know there are plans to run

flight school.

Macca, we have the A-cats coming to Islamorada, FL in the Keys the week of January 12, 2015 - January 16, 2015 and again back to the keys in early March. It would be great to connect with you and the GC32s.

Get Macca on a borrowed A,then maybe he can return the favor with rides on the GC 32.
