I say for myself, finally ;-)
As I wrote here on the A good mix of Creativity, 5y ago on the post

Means I was not wrong, maybe to early, but definitely on the right way!
I am sure the technology and development will go forward also on this

Future of sailing are the wings, I can predict we will see in short the sameless wings on AC boats!
Wait and see ;-)
