It sure does look badass. But I am skeptical about the 180 mph top speed. Maybe it's a drag boat and cuts a hole in the water too fast to fall in. But I'd think that a v-hull, even a catamaran double v would be beat to shit and back at 180 mph over a stretch of water big enough to get going that fast. A hydrofoil? Ok. V-hull? and not steel strong enough to withstand being pounded by the wave? Carbon fiber is light, but not know for its toughness.
I'd be interested to hear more, or, hey, let's see it in action! eta: aha... http://jalopnik.com/5846470/buy-this...for-17-million

A Los Angeles-class sub at periscope depth. Pic taken from a P-3 Orion, perhaps fittingly, a sub-hunter.
Is it just me, or, does something appear to be...emanating out from the airplane's shadow?

That's just the shadow of the depth charge being released. BOOM!
Just kidding that's part of the plane.

I meant that I see something akin to semi-visible rays (for lack of a better word) of some sort emanating 360 degrees from the plane. Not the tail-boom-lookin-thingy.

OK the darker blue lines? Probably the texture of the water surface.

Well it has an outboard motor, what appears to be MS boat numbers, and was in Boston Harbor photographing the tall ships... must be boat.

Steering wheel is not on the correct side...
...but, on a boat it is.

Now, for the argument:
Is it a boattruck, or is it a truckboat?

Wait.
No windshield, or A-pillars. I think Bruce may be right. That's a boat.

That's not a boat, now this is a boat, which I saw on the day/place that dude drove into the water.
