Anyone got a pic of their boat getting some air?

I've never seen a rib get air, but seen a couple of pics here and there off them airborne.

I've done it unintentionally a couple times, but never got a pic.

Please post em, if ya got em.

My all time favorite airborne sequence....

As I recall, as reported in RIB International after the race, the Fabio Buzzi 55 made a full rotation out of the water, landed, and went on to finish the race. Do not recall if the team won or not.
