I don't know if you have seen this but there it is
I was searching though the web and found this
The Flyak! He is off the water!

The Flyak is a hydrofoil adaptation to the conventional kayak. Twin
hydrofoils are designed to raise the hull clear of the water and increase
the speed. Speeds up 16.9 mph can be achieved on calm water.
The Flyak has two hydrofoil fins below the surface of the water to create
lift. At high speeds the entire hull is lifted 15 cm from the water, reducing
the drag and allowing even greater speeds, reportedly more than twice
that of a conventional kayak.
