If you take a closer look to this yacht, you’ll find the tips of the wings are pivoting, thus temporarily restricting the width of the hydrofoils. This means a parking spot will be easily found at the harbor since the volume is restricted when mooring.

The designer is not interested in commercializing Xi super yacht, but rather plans to sell the technology and wishes to go on making new concepts and designs.
