A hydrofoil is a lifting surface, or foil, that operates in water.they are similar in appearance and purpose to aerofoils used by aeroplanes. boats that use hydrofoil technology are also simply termed hydrofoils. as a hydrofoil craft gains speed, the hydrofoils lift the boat's hull out of the water, decreasing drag and allowing greater speeds.. Foiling to the future. “comanche’s design team looked into dss as well as a broad array of ‘new’ systems to help reduce displacement and increase righting allowing the boat to foil.. All new, ufo foiling sailboats are available from shoreline sailboats of western new york, official dealers of the ufo - summer 2017. contact us at shorelinesailboats.com to try the awesome state.
