Wow, it's a huge flat-bottomed skiff on foils.
And this prototype is half the size of the Cup version.
It will be interesting to see light air performance, but that is seldom the case in New Zealand.

This'll make the starts interesting with the "hook and luff". I wonder if a leebow still works on these boats, if so that's going to be a lot more interesting as well.
