THE HISTORY OF HYDROFOILS INCORPORATED
 

Hydrofoils Incorporated, a Delaware corporation was founded by Kenneth E. Cook, of Rumson, NJ and Lake Worth, Florida over thirty years ago. It has been primarily a research and development company for the design, manufacture and testing of high-speed marine vehicles. The company has concentrated on all forms of vehicles using high-speed supercavitating hydrofoils and is currently conducting open water tests of unmanned, remotely piloted hydrofoils with speeds estimated at approaching mach one. Early successes included the first hydrofoil to EVER exceed 100 knots, which was demonstrated by invitation of the Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers (SNAME) at the Advanced Ships Conference in San Diego, California. This design is currently the world’s fastest hydrofoil. We have successfully tested many different proprietary designs and have more on water run time than any other company in the world in this field. These efforts have led to the development of very safe marine vehicles that are much more advanced than those currently in use. This is the first time that we have offered our technology for commercial applications, and the worldwide response has been overwhelming.

Core management was completed in 1999. The team is closely knit with well over one hundred years of combined industry experience. Each individual has first hand knowledge of the proprietary technology and a strong realization of its potential to create a major impact on the industry. As such, a great deal of commitment and singleness of purpose exists within the team.
