Seagull Racing Goes Foiling

Michael Henderson’s seagull racing dinghy just got a wild upgrade—America’s Cup-style hydrofoils that lift it out of the water and smash drag. Inspired by 2016-17 chats with America’s Cup folks, he and buddy Joe Leureux engineered this tech beast, pushing speeds way beyond the boat’s original limits—all while keeping safety front and center. The seagull racing world is buzzing with excitement, crediting Nigel Pollard as the first to foiling in the scene. They’re gunning for glory in the Heineken Round the Island Race this Saturday, proving that tradition meets innovation when passion meets precision.
