I suspect the deck areas we are talking about are of more unbroken area than other craft
remember that their are fewer obstructions below the deck such as the hull of a tri
where the functions in consideration are wind area, air speed, lift coefficient
and to optimise that, a pressure side, a suction side, and suitable endplates
as to tri's or others taking off well, have I heard of it, no
but I note windsurfers have a little trick of pulling the sail back to horizontal coming off a wave
and by that certainly do take off, perhaps as high as 100ft or so

How is HP different from an (open) bridgedeck catamaran (or a newick trimaran with 'solid wings') - have they ever reported lift-off?
