      The Insetta 35IFC has a range of 1000Nm at 45kts with a pair of 300HP outboards getting OVER 2MPG at cruising speed. Probably a similar carbon footprint unless they're using one of the brand new methods to extract the hydrogen.

    Hydrogen is largely greenwashing by oil companies. Most commercially available hydrogen is made from Methane (natural gas), a fossil fuel mostly produced and controlled by oil companies.
    Burning the natural gas in an internal combustion engine is simpler and more efficient.
    And when Hydrogen is made from electrolysis of water, the same input energy will drive an electric vehicle 3x to 4x as far as a Hydrogen vehicle.

      Regarding the batteries ...they would be too heavy for the required range. Perhaps you are using a passenger vehicle as a reference. Yes in that application batteries are much better. But it is very different from the needs of comparatively large marine vessel. In this case H2 fuel cells are a very good option. And the difference in efficiency is more like 2x not 3 or 4 as you state. Reference Real Engineering's video The Truth About Hydrogen @10:57 .

    Shipping liquid Hyrogen is estimated to be 5x the cost of transporting LPG per Kj stored.
    While hydrogen is an abundant elementr it does not exist in nature in a usable form, unlike LPG.
    Production of Hyrogen gas requires high input of electricity as does the process to pressurise it to a transportable/usable liquid state. Currently the most efficient production model cinverts LPG to Hydrogen gas but with a significant CO2 footprint.
    Neither liquid nor gas hydrogen are safe to transport by pipeline necessitating transport in extreme pressure containers. An expensive process that can not be scaled.
    Currently LHG costs $12 per Kg to the consumer, compared to $3 per Kg for LPG and less than $2 per Kg for gasoline. The higher LHG cost is unlikely to change significantly due to cost of transporting it.
    Before exploring fanciful uses of Hydrogen we need to explore how can we produce it economically.

      this boat is designed to be fast and have a long range. The amount of weight required to go a certain distance with batteries is much higher than the weight of hydrogen fuel cells. A boat just like this but with batteries would be much, much heavier, thus it would be harder to lift out of the water, thus it would use more power, thus the batteries would have to be bigger, on and on until the boat is one big battery. This boat is for chasing race boats, so there will always be downtime like overnight to fill the hydrogen tanks. They did not design the boat around fast fillups because it was not necessary. This boat is designed for a purpose, and it needs to be lightweight.
      you're thinking in practical terms, for everyday vehicles. Batteries are perfect for normal cars and boats. This is not a normal boat, it is built for a purpose. THAT is why you complicate the engineering, because its necessary for the specific goal you have in mind.
      you're thinking about how to efficiently go around UK canals/toodle around. You're right, you don't need or want hydrogen, it is indeed way overkill when you can just get a bigger battery for your sailboat. But think about what is different between your use case and these guys.

    Why not just a flat ski along the bottom of each hulls keel, foils break and must be pushed through the thick water fluid.
    Aero engineers note that the pressure on the bottom of the foil causes the lift and so going through a medium like air the air over the top must be guided, but a ski top side is in an extremely low density medium and it has minor effect compared to the denser water it is sliding on.
    Just trying to be helpful.

      ​@@stephenbrickwood1602 I looked at 3 SeaSki videos, and detect no breakthrough. While it might have a niche in moderately low draft and low waves, you can see how it rides at the surface with stiff side-catching fins, little suspension give, and like any planing hull, expends significant energy into displacing the surface of the water. That's why I don't expect to see it displace other versatile practical low or high speed craft. Do you expect to see it in the Americas cup? I do think it is potentially little more crashworthy, and nicer to sea life than current racing sailboats.

      My thought on both technology is that to lift the boats weight up is because the foils or ski deflect the same mass down.
      Same energy.
      The deep cat hulls and foils lift up the same distance above the water surface.
      The impact on the cat hulls includes a cushion of air.
      The skis would be more robust.
      A 'fly off' between identical sized boats would be interesting 🤔.

    I understand you are sponsored by Toyota but (green) hydrogen is at best horribly inefficient taking around 3x as much electricity per mile.
    The worst part is there is a push for blue hydrogen which is Steam reformation of natural gas using CCS to capture the co2 that is released on the process. The problem is that it's using fossil fuel still and CCS doesn't work.
    Do you need 150Nm of range on a chase boat? Batteries are cleaner and more efficient and can be charged directly from solar/wind.

      Or, in a properly designed system for a one-off boat like a Cup Chase Boat, have a hatch where the batteries can be quickly hoisted out at dockside and replaced with fully charged ones. The issue with using wind/solar to do the recharge "on the run" is you'll never be able to keep up with the current drawn by the engines and "house loads", not even in something as big (and relatively slow) as a Silent 60.
