I'll answer your question obliquely, not to be evasive, but to be more accurate. What I expected them to post was the longest range at any speed, but while "riding on the foils", not on the hull. Or, better yet, to have made two range claims. Dan

I would have preferred a range quote for "cruising" speed, what ever that might be for this little, sporty hydrofoil. Cruising range is an accepted industry measurement for recreational trawlers and cabin cruisers, and they don't mean at 20% of top speed.
