Maritime transportation emits a billion tonnes of CO2 annually, facing new IMO regulations to cut emissions by 50% by 2050. Traditional electric boats struggle with limited range due to water density, hindering industry innovation.

This talk introduces a revolutionary boat class, combining America’s Cup hydrofoiling, Formula One electric drivetrains, and aerospace flight control. Hydrofoils lift the hull, reducing drag by over 90% and dramatically extending range. This technology promises to revolutionize maritime transport with improved comfort, quiet operation, and zero wake.
