The PoliTo Sailing Team is a group of 90 students from the Polytechnic University of Turin and they are exhibiting at the Maker Faire Rome 2023, showcasing a boat that can literally fly over water.
IEspoke to a student of mechanical engineering Sara Cantalini from the Polytechnic University of Turin and a member of the new boat’s team.
“That one is a boat that flies on water,” she said referring to the vessel. “It uses a lift produced by the appendees to go up and proceeds to fly with a control system that regulates the stability of the boat.”
She added that the control system is the most engineered part of the boat because it requires both mechanical and electronic regulation. The mechanical process is natural as it comes from the waves’ movement while the electronic one is achieved through ultrasonic sensors.

Powering all this is a motor shaped like a moth insect. But what’s best about the vessel is that it’s eco-friendly.
“Let's talk about materials because the boat is in large part sustainable because we use a mineral fiber with raisin while the molds are in MDF,” explained Cantalini.
The basels are also recyclable while most of the boat’s materials have been well documented to be sustainable.
“We wrote a lot of articles and papers about that boat, about the sustainability of the materials and the fact that we can reuse the material after lamination,” said Cantalini.
Finally, incorporating Okume and balsa wood, materials that are lightweight, allows the engineers to decrease the total weight of the boat to about 40 to 50 kg while the honley hull is more or less 18 kg.
“So finally, the highest speed that we can achieve is 17 knots. That is the equivalent of 35 km/hour,” concluded Cantalini.
