The hull is shaped and ballasted to harvest as much energy as possible from the pitching and rolling motion in waves. Two hydrofoils are mounted horizontally below the keel at both ends of the hull. The foils are located on struts bolted to the hull. The foils and struts may be detached from the hull for transport.
