A review of the new 2024 F-ONE Seven Seas 1100 hydrofoil (currently on the F-ONE website they are calling it the Seven Seas and the 2022 model is called the SS Carbon). Tested for speed, maneuverability, wing tip ventilation, and glide.
I previously reviewed the Seven Seas 2022 Version 1200 and 1000 in the foil reviews page.
The 2024 is quite different, I was initially shocked at how different it felt, and pleasantly surprised with the changes.

Last weekend we had our first Downwind Foil Gathering at Old Princeton Landing. Awesome turn out, so stoked to see so many familiar faces all in one place!
Below is my YouTube video as well as Denton’s video, and slow motion videos of the experts paddling up onto foil.
In this video series I explain how popular foil brands are designed and built and why it matters. How the hydrofoil wings connect to the fuselage and the mast, whether in components or one single piece, I go over the components and design choices and the pluses and minuses. Several times I was an early adopter of a new foil and learned the expensive way whether the marketing why hype or the real deal. The brands I discuss are F-One, Axis, Armstrong, Slingshot, and Mike's Lab. This knowledge can be applied to any brand of foil. For clarity this isn't a detailed review of a specific foil wing or model (see my Foil Reviews page for detailed reviews). This information helps one know what they are getting so they can determine the true value of a hydrofoil, it's durability and longevity, and what the upgrade options are.
The point of this video series is to give you an overall understanding of why foil designers do what they do. I didn't have a clue when I bought my first foil, it was all a big mystery. Every new brand of foil I purchased had a new learning curve of how the parts fit together, function, and the longevity and durability.

I grew up hearing the old, "sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me." As a kid I would rather have my dad yell at me or lecture me than to hit me. Now as an adult I almost feel the opposite. In martial arts class we did an exercise where we tried to trigger or neg or name call each other, simulating a bully on the street. I couldn't do it, it was harder to say nasty things to someone than to try and choke them to death or break their leg.
Then there is the saying the pen is mightier than the sword.
