I notice he's using wing paddles.

Had to happen - have you read James Grogono's book "Icarus - The boat that flies".

For outright weird you cant beat the Swedes - thing called the "trampofoil" currently not in production.

Some Slovenians are giving it a go read this (http://www.ocean.washington.edu/people/faculty/parker/pogo_foil.htm) .

And if you can save 10 pounds in the kayak shell you can make the kayak self rolling.

Whooee!!! I want one to go with a foiler moth!
As for the trike, I look forward to the first channel crossing, and what would the coast guard say.
It's not a boat, it doesnt float, I doubt any existing regulations cover it. :D :D
