really did think that in terms of sailboat design I’d seen it all. Then came the Syroco (See , page 17). Consisting of an elongated pod suspended between a powerful kite sail and an equally powerful T-foil in the water, it is truly unlike anything I have ever seen before. Note, in contrast to the T-foils creators hope to achieve speeds of 80-plus knots, smashing the current record by 10 knots or more, making it the fastest sailboat in the world.
