    I read about that boat too. They claim 24 hours at low speeds, but on average 4-6 hours of active usage. Did not really say usage with full crew and ballast. 6,900#s of dry weight and a total of 9k displacement using Tabs as a surf system on a 23' boat starting at $258k.

    Not for me, but interesting to say the least . . . . and funny looking.

    It wouldn't be my first choice of boat either.

    It's probably because every picture on their website is a render and not a real image. Still, I have the same problem with electric boats that I have with electric trucks: How do I use it to go to Lake Powell? I'm not able to find a charge point for the truck and the boat would have to stay near the marina, since I wouldn't want to try to charge it off a houseboat generator. It just doesn't make any sense for me. Maybe it does if you have a lake house with a boat house with a high voltage connection, but it probably won't ever work for me unless they somehow invent the Mr. Fusion.

    Easy solution…. Fossil fuel powered generator in the back of your truck ! (Tongue firmly planted in cheek)
