Sadly it is also a French boat - honestly I thought we invented everything. :)
So what is it?
The World's fastest sailing boat is the Hydroptere - a hydrofoil trimaran giant. If they ever want me have a go on it and make a report I am ready.
Reading about it on the web it has apparently hit an amazing 61 knots!!! However I see that back in December 2008 it made the headlines when it hit that amazing speed and wiped out!! Look at the link below and see the pics! To right such a massive boat it had to be towed to shore.
