...In other words, this vessel does not push, slap or pierce the waves but instead 'dances' with them...

Wasn't that a Kevin Costner film, "Dances With Waves"?

Artist: The Blues Image Lyrics
Song: Ride Captain Ride Lyrics
Seventy-three men sailed up from the San Francisco Bay
Rolled off of their ship, and here's what they had to say
"We're callin' everyone to ride along to another shore
We can laugh our lives away and be free once more"

But no one heard them callin', no one came at all
'Cause they were too busy watchin' those old raindrops fall
As a storm was blowin' out on the peaceful sea
Seventy-three men sailed off to history

Ride, captain ride upon your mystery ship
Be amazed at the friends you have here on your trip
Ride captain ride upon your mystery ship
On your way to a world that others might have missed

(Repeat first two verses)

(Chorus)

Ride, captain ride upon your mystery ship
Be amazed at the friends you have here on your trip

...The vessel has a pair of flexible hulls flexibly coupled to a 'cabin' between and above the hulls, thereby allowing the hulls to independently follow the surface of the water...

Independant suspension for boats. Kewl.

Hang on for a few minutes, I'll have to host my pics somewhere. We know Ugo and have been right alongside the boat.

Go to the above link. There are plenty of clear photos. Remember - don't leech the pics here unless you have them on your own hosting.
