Spirit Yachts has joined forces with none other than BAR Technologies in order to launch an electric hydrofoil that is designed to offer phenomenal range. In fact, the 'SpiritBARTech35EF' is fitted with a special battery pack that is able to generate an exception 120 kWh, which makes it possible for this particular vessel to go about traveling distances as high as 185 km at cruising speeds of 41 km/h on a full charge.
The 'SpiritBARTech35EF' electric hydrofoil measures in at 35 feet in length, which makes its range specs all the more impressive. Elsewhere, this hydrofoil happens to utilize a single Equipmake motor.
Crafted together from a blend of titanium and specially cold-crafted wood and making use of a reinforced carbon fiber shell, the 'SpiritBARTech35EF' electric hydrofoil is able to attain a top speed of just over 51 km/h.
