Ferrari Unveils Automated Flight Control Technology for Hypersail Yacht
Ferrari unveiled flight-control technology for its 100-foot Hypersail ocean-going sailboat on Oct. 16, 2026; development has generated more than 20 patents. The project entered its final construction phase with hull painting completed, moving toward its next operational stage. Flight Control adapts sports-car control technology to automatically adjust foils using sensor data, maintaining stability as wind and sea conditions change. A keel-integrated foil with a movable flap provides a third support point to improve stability during foiling. The multilayer carbon-fiber hull provides rigidity at low weight; carbon-titanium sandwich components reinforce areas exposed to extreme loads.
