I know it's not really anything to do with spaceflight, but I thought the type of person who plays KSP would probably appreciate it anyway:

14 metre hydrofoiling catamarans, capable of doing 70+km/hr, powered only by the wind. How cool is this?! :)

Not as cool as 60+ metre rockets, capable of doing 25000+ km/h, powered by split water burning :cool:

Anyway, even though I'm not really following any sailing sports or competitons, I admit that it is indeed pretty impressive to see what they can do with a breeze ^^ The level of engineering in these ships is also impressive, I'm quite sure some of the technologies used in making these is comparable to some of the things you find in rockets.
