Faster than a speeding truck

I wouldn't expect to see these showing up at JaxPort anytime soon, but I am curious to see what type of impact a ship fast enough to compete with trucks would have on the First Coast's logistic industry.

If you take a polynesian canoe and add some creative engineering, futuristic technology and advanced calculations you get a pentamaran. A cargo transportation ship with the speed of a trailer.
