I just got in the lateset issue of paddler mag. As I flip though it I find this artical. Norwegian paddler clocked at nearly 20 mph on a hydofoil kayak. will be for sale this summer for only $2500.00

I'll take one with rod holders and s/s hydofoil gard.

Naaah Robert--you don't need to borrow my pedal drive. Here's a yak already equipped and ready to go.

I didn't think of it until just now, and I'm sure someone, somewhere, has already done it, but I bet a rowing shell with a hydrofoil like that on it would flat out haul butt.
