Hello the Cellar, it has been a long time !

This photo reminds me of the last dream of Eric tabarly (our former national sailor), his "flying boat" : l'Hydroptère :

You can have a look at the header and the pictures:

The faster he goes, the more he rises from the water on his two foils. Then he's nearly flying over the sea.

He's already done better than Louis Blériot's plane when crossing the Channel !!

When engineering meets poetry...
