Auto foiling hydrofoil

All you have to do is sit back , throttle up and move vtol down. To do large gentil turns use roll, to do tighter turns intagrate in the rudder. Vtol controls the pitch of the secondary foils and the main foils are controlled mechanically by the boats hight in the water.

    Love the solution. Genius is often the act of seeing what is right in front of us. That's close to a quote, but I can't remember who said it.
