Original Note:
NNN - factual Hydrofoil watercraft are often described as "flying", and this is technically accurate. Hydrofoils are underwater wings, and produce lift in the same way as aircraft wings. This lift raises the craft above the water's surface, smoothing ride and reducing drag. http://lancet.mit.edu/decavitator/Basics.html https://www.boatus.com/expert-advice/expert-advice-archive/2018/april/hydrofoils
