@milopax.tt: How Is This Boat Flying Above the Water? 😮 The Soviet-built Meteor used underwater wings called hydrofoils to lift its hull above the water as it accelerated. With less hull in the water, drag dropped dramatically, allowing it to reach around 65 km/h while carrying more than 120 passengers. The same basic technology is still used by modern hydrofoils today. Would you ride on a boat that flies above the water? 👇 #hydrofoil #boats #engineering #maritime
