Finnish company specializing in hydrodynamic electric watercraft called Foil.One has introduced its flagship product called Pegasus and it looks cool as hell. The Pegasus is a single seat electric hydrofoil boat that is as impressive in performance as it is aesthetically pleasing.

The vessel is constructed entirely from carbon fiber making it strong but also light. This allows it to glide above the water’s wake and travel farther. The hydrofoil is propelled by an 18.8 kW electric motor powered by two swappable 5 kWh 48 Volts battery packs from Torqeedo.
An electric motor combined with hydrofoils eliminates the annoying sounds of conventional boats using combustion engines. The foil.one PEGASUS steering system offers you the thrill of flying above water while making you feel like Maverick (without the missiles).

At the heart of our boat’s maneuverability is a cutting edge, in-house developed, steering system designed to enhance the unique dynamics of foiling. The freedom of an electric foiling boat elevates you from the ordinary and land-based constraints. This unique experience lets you explore open water in an entirely new way.
