hi , what model is this , as difficult to see in video, i'm also into hydrofoils.

[kwokwing]

It is a PT20 hydrofoil,same as the one in 007 movie - Thunderbolt.The original one sold as a toy powered by 2 AA cells and a small motor during 1963.

sweet was looking for hydrofoils of old and best example I found so far is a video from 96 and a toy made in 63. It would be cool if a manufacturer made a similar larger scale model today
