uThose of us who row around the water in our 14-foot boats have gotten used to the jet-skiers blasting by and spraying us and our picnic basket with water. What we can't get used to is the oily crud that is emitted from gas-powered watercraft.
The Foiljet MR1 is an electric motorcycle for the water. It won't kick up a wake because the Foiljet rides above the water, but it's silent and clean.
Implications - Designed by Matt De Bellefeulle and Robert Vandenham, the environmentally friendly recreational vehicle is powered by a 48 volt electric motor and comes equipped with low noise, increased safety, and quality. This is the kind of smooth watersports any vacationer or outdoors-person would obsess over.
The Foiljet MR1 is available now.
