we call it the sound of speed and love it. It can be reduced by sanding the trailing edge at an ache of 70-80degrees

Good to Know. My concern is for stress up on sea life because sound really travels underwater.

Very nice video. The sound is a bit weird due to vibrations through some (hollow?) metal part I guess. But the ride seems smooth like a flying carpet. Is there any battery powered computer system controlling the angle of attack on the foils? And if so, what is the time it can last on a battery?(I am just interested).

We call it the sound of speed 😀. The faster we sail, the higher the sound, which is created on the trailing edge of the carbon / titanium foils. You will observe the same on the America’s Cup yachts and the F50 catamarans of @SailGp. The iFLY foils are high end products, full carbon with titanium core structure, compression molded under 40.000kg pressure. The daggerboard is so strong, that the sailor can stand on it without any risk of breaking it.

Yes, iFLY’s active flight control system is cutting edge technology, fully mecanic, making iFLY the foiler with the best flight attitude. Stable flight is key, pre-requisite for both, high speed and safe fun. There are no electronics nor batteries aboard 😀. Just German mecanical engineering 💪⭐️
