In a short answer - yes! It can do 20 knots.
Can you overnight comfortably on a SeaKart -NO!
Does a SeaKart fold back so you can fit into a standard slip - NO!
You are not comparing similar boats.
If you want to extol the benefits of the SeaKart this is not the place for it.
We all know it is a fast boat and will make a great toy.

Where's all the gear?
I've sailed our DF 1000 over 17 knots with a full load consisting of a month's food, fuel, wine, full sized sewing machine, wife, two cats with all their foot and cat litter (do you have any idea of the weight of a month's worth of cat litter?) watermaker, furnace, inverter radar, chartplotter etc etc.
I don't see any of that in the above daysailer.

Steve! I like it: sewing machine and wife…, Yea, I don’t see () wife on seacart either!
DF 28 can also take sewing machine and very comfortably full sized wife..., but it can much more: it can complete FynCup regatta in very heavy weather, while Seacart 30, Extreme 40, Tri40 Carbon 3, Seaon 96, Corsair F28CC, and all other not-Dragonfly multihulls DNF’ed. In a fact only Dragonflies finished this year FynCup and the fastest was Jens on his Dragonfire. (www.Fyncup.dk unfortunately only in Danish). DF 28 won also this year Watski 2 STAR over superlight speed machine Tri40 Carbon3.
But if sbd is interested in speed daysailers so I am pretty sure that hydrofoils and perspective design tri’s by Philippe Roulin are faster than seacart.
