I suspect the video is of the first Airbus sponsored/supported boat because the image I originally posted looks more aerodynamic, has a fine tail verses the blunted transom in the video.
I've been fascinated by these hi-end foil sailing boats for years, they seem to defy physics while actually embracing physics.
The Airbus sponsorship and sharing of technology is interesting, I had no idea. Thank you for posting the video.
