This boat is friggin' frightening! 130,000 design/buiuld hours so far. Makes F1 racing look like a hobby.

I wonder how much horsepaower 12,700 square feet of sail can generate? And to be piloting 25 feet off the water.

That is just an insanely huge sail - I would imagine for a lay person onboard (not even piloting) it would be pretty overwhelming. And to be piloting 25 ft off the water Would love to go for a ride!
