David Borman's Sea Phantom (VIDEO)

The Sea Phantom designed by David Borman is a James Bond-like craft having a “helicopter speed at a powerboat price”. It is 50 feet long and will travel at 140mph with 24 passengers on board. David Borman says “Many of the new breed of high-performance boats can travel at triple-digit speeds over the water. Our objective is to make this kind of speed practical, safe, comfortable and efficient - ultimately to make maritime transport a viable alternative to our crowded skies and highways.”

For $2.5 million his boat will have maritime transport capabilities that are the equivalent of a $10-$12 million aircraft, and that the first production models for civilian pleasure craft will cost between $400,000 and $600,000. He has big plans for his futuristic ship, forseeing it being used for mass transport field as well as the military. (gizmodo)

I think the Focus 21 France has just as much of a chance of succeeding as this. Not enough commercial interest in this concept to "get it off the ground".
