The Delaware Bay is home for the Sailing Ship MEERWALD and one gray day a young man came flying by on a Hydrofoil board.

A friend of mine is a volunteer crew member on the A J Meerwald. I've been telling him for years I was going to go for a sail but haven't yet gotten down there. I guess I better just do it. Very nice blend of history and future as you say. Thanks for posting

Nice catch showing the contrasting technologies of water craft.
Is that board electrically propelled? The only time I’ve seen these the rider was using a handheld sail or a kite.

The Meerwald is currently being totally refurbished and should be back in Bivalve this fall. Can't wait to see her. Here are a few sunrise/sunset shots on board

yes it is battery powered and a hydrofoil, it flies just above the water. Very cool but I'll take the Meerwald
