Ive been out in vancover island and i know about the peace you feel out there. Its like my soul heading out and getting a massage. Best thing ever. Its a sad day when we lose a legend. Rip.J immy. Thank you Nick.
Very well done. A vessel that flies over the water. So James Bond-ish. 🍸 Shaken, not stirred. Thank you!
Thats the thing and daam it looks stupid😂
Fantastic Drone shots and Camera work on a flying boat.
So proud of this Swedish company and others. I have seen these in action in the Stockholm archipelago. Another electric company to keep an eye on are Heart Aerospace with the electric regional airliners, a Gothenburg company.
Nick, that is one of the coolest things I've ever seen. Great video. Looks like Marianne was having a blast as well.
Thanks! 😃
A real James Bond moment on a great idea for a boat. This would make a very economical tender for a super yacht I would think. Great drone footage Nick & nice to see MaryAnne along for the fun.👍🇨🇦🙏
Glad you enjoyed it 🙂
An interesting demonstration of technology summed up by Marianne in the most British was possible.
"I could have a cup of tea and not spill it."
Fantastic idea...@0:57 you little charmer :)
Nick, Palma = Llaut’s when are you going to do a tour, please! I’ve just bought my first one all be it 38 years old and I’m loving it.
Just looked it up Nick. The battery is supplied by Volvo Polestar and the torpedo shape prop unit is very cool. Nice video.
Volvo Polestar = Geely = 🇨🇳

Where did you find that info?
There's a reason why Candela hides almost all of its technical data, battery sizes, consumption figures, everything. No transparency, no honesty in their stated figures. And of course no disclosure about what happens when the battery overheats when traveling for a long time in hot hot weather, or the consumption for heating the battery in cold weather.
Anyway, pretty impossible to have a conversation here on advertising-tube where advertisers determine what we can say here and UA-cam shadowbans most comments. No open exchange of ideas on a platform like this where they hide your comments from everyone!
Impressive, silent and efficient boat 👏👏👏
57 miles is quite a long way when on water pop round to a few picturesque bays, bobbing around on the water.
Those people with these smaller boats if asked how far they travel when out on their boats I bet it’s less than 20 miles for most of them. Remember if you want to go hundreds of miles on your boat buy one that runs on Diesel.
Great video Nick and Marrianne as always.
Exactly so. It won't suit everyone, but it will be fine for a lot of day boaters.
The point is that soon you won’t be able to buy a diesel boat.
@@simonkensington-fellows6142 Ready for Tesla to take over the boat market
i have already for 15-20 years an electric outboard for my fishing boat, and the silence is just so nice.
New bater hold 20 oervt more teange. 68. Mile rsnge
I have ridden on one of these. It is a bizarre experience. No water sound. No engine sound. If going downwind, no wind sound. They are not for everyone but they are super interesting
If it’s good enough for Red Funnel it’s good enough for me( red jet now😞). Amazing.
love it, want one, it's friday... lotto!,,,, hmmmm....
I think last year or the year before, I wanna say for Cannes, but maybe it was Monaco, there was a spate of electric boats everywhere. The battery pack from BMW, along with the motor and everything else in one case since they bought the car and then tore it apart and placed it in the boat.
I predict this will be a massive hit for Candela. Awesome video! Thank you, Nick and Marianne!
You're very welcome! 🙂
Flight of the Navigator! For real!! 😂😂🤣🤣Awesome episode! Thanks for the review! 👍👍
Thanks for watching! 🙂
@@AQUAHOLIC 👍👍
What a fantastic boat nick and great video ⛵️🚤🛥👍👍👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👏👏👏👏👏
Thanks! 🙂
You are literally flying!
Yup! It's remarkable!
Amazing to see, very James Bond like
Perfect for my love of the skis . No wash Mr B
That is something special. Smuggler's Blues with hydroplanes 😄. Great video, Nick.
Thanks! 🙂
Exceptional
You can't fake that reaction. Delightful video 👍
Glad you enjoyed it! 🙂
Marianne is awesome :D
Very interesting boat, and 57nm is not too shabby either. I'll stick to sailing, but if I ever wanted to go power, this would be it.
Hydrofoils have been around since the 1950's it's just interesting how the new tech of electric drive is changeing them, makes for a really nice design.
Very true. It's always been a challenge getting power from the motor in the boat down to the water. With electric drives they just fit the motors directly on the foils.
@@AQUAHOLIC yea I noticed it looks like the rear foil actually turns with the drive pod, interesting engineering, in fact looks you could actually put front drive pods on if you really needed to, fun times we live in.
Absolutely loving your socks😂👍
😄
C’est toujours un réel plaisir de voir vos vidéos ! Thanks a lot 🙏
That’s a bit funky!!! 🫢
Amazing! And apparently they're also building a commuter ferry for Stockholm.
That silence sounds fantastic! 👍
The comment about how quiet electric boats are is spot on. There are a lot of private lakes that are banning non electric boats for that reason. When I was shopping for my boat I was looking at 1960s boats and noticed a few of them that were converted to electric just for that reason.
I looove Marianne’s dress! ❤ The boat is nice too
I'll let her know! 🙂
So cool, would like to see this on larger boats, too!
very nice for a quick day trip. a little fun out on the water. I've noticed now a few boats that you've done recently seem to be have the maryanne feature. Should be standard on all boats LOL. Grea job as always Nick!
Great for no wake zones.
Imagine blasting through a no wake zone at 20 knots😂😂😂
tank you for sharing, experience similar riding electric unicycle on the ground
Very impressive thanks for brining us such variety with endless enthusiasm. That classic superyacht with the blue hull in the background looks amazing - did you get on board by any chance?
Sadly not
I am very impressed with this electric boat. without engine and water noise. it's almost like you're floating above the water.
Aloha; the astonishment on Marriann's face said it all! AWESOME!
That is amazing. Reminds me of Thunderball.
True! 😄
Range just over once around the Isle of Wight
If you're planning to go round twice, you'll need a different boat. 🙂
Fascinating! Cheers, you two!
incredipble! Marianne your beautiful face at lift off is priceless lol. I would like to hear more about the handling next time but great video. love you both and thanks for making this surgery recovery much better, God Bless
What an amazing trip over the water well done to you both for a flying lesson at sea.
Fascinating boat. You all seemed to have a great time.
When Frederick Law Olmsted (the Father of Landscape Architecture) designed the 1893 Chicago World's Fair, he insisted that, whatever the cost or bother, the boats in the lagoon be powered by electricity. He knew what a game changer the quiet, seemingly effortless propulsion was and how it would add so much to the enjoyment of guests. Glad we're finally getting to the point where battery technology is making this a practical proposition.
Meile Meile good. Very peaceful. Even the salesman is very quiet... which seems appropriate. 330K euros, though! ... only for high flyers 😅
Always been so interesting that design and have been around a long time but only now seem to be hitting the mainstream.
I think the Smuggler’s Blues 2 just found its new “dingy”! 😀
Actually, it reminds me of taking my one and only hydrofoil trip. In the 1970’s, between the Hawaiian Islands, there was an inter-island ferry service using the Boeing 929 Jetfoil Hydrofoil. They used gas turbines to power them.
I think the company was called “Seaflite” if I recall.
Great video!
Cheers from Texas!
I totally agree with Marianne, wow.
Wiw amazing nick and marrianne
Thanks!
The shot of you going past the Grand Banks made me think.
Cutting through that wash (what wash?) of the other boat was hilarious. Just remember to stow your tray table on descent.
So how long does it take to charge?
Fascinating review Nick, live to see what its like inside.
How would it hadle a big'ish seaway, 3 to 4ft. say..?
Anazing technology, but with only 50 mile range, you're only going to be able to sail about an hour from where your plugged in, before you have to turn back?
Haha, if you believe what a company like that says about their range...
That's awesome. Leave it up to both of you to find the next fad. Thank you both.
You're welcome! 🙂
The future is here, but we need even better solutions for making bigger boats green too. Thank you and Marianne for the ride 😎
You're very welcome! 🙂
The same company (Candela) is developing larger taxi boats as well.
amazing,, wonder how slow it can go out of the water ?
I seem to recall 16 knots
I wonder what happens when one of the hydrofoils hits some kelp or a log.
Nice. What’s the charging infrastructure requirements?
Wow like the hydrofoil
Very interesting vid thanks! I notice there are a few negative comments, most of which are similar to what people were saying about electric cars ten yrs ago ;-)
Hi Nick. When the boat is up on its foils, where are the electric engines located to provide the propulsion? Cheers
On the rear hydrofoil.
@@AQUAHOLIC OK, thank you
Great! Please feature more electric and solar boats
Wind powered boats be like ...
Quite an interesting boat. To me it would be more for transportation I’d think. If I want a day out on the water I believe I’d prefer a more traditional boat. If I were commuting over water, this would be ideal.
Love it. Electric boating is the way forward. It’s a peaceful experience so you can just enjoy the world around you as you go/fly by. Thanks for that M&N 😎✌🏻
What do you base your claim: "Electric boating is the way forward" on? I totally disagree: electric boating is destructive to society and is not environmentally friendly. I don't see how fully carbon fibre constructed small boats are in any way a great thing either.
Foiling boats on the other hand seem great...once they are fully developed some time in the future. With internal combustion engines of course, not the horrible and polluting electric drivetrains.

Thanks Nick! I'll wait till they go through a little more testing..
Fair enough, but they got to start somewhere. 🙂
Marianne is thinking Smuggler's Blues 3, lol
AMAZING!!!!!😊😊😊
I want to see how it does in rougher waters.
As soon as the waves become high enough, the computer shuts down everything, and the boat sinks back into the water to operate as a normal planing vessel. You can try to resume hydrofoiling, but if the computer still cannot cope, it's back into the water you go.
Which is a bit of a problem if you were halfway to your destination and relying on the efficiency of hydrofoils to get you that 57 miles, but are now getting nowhere near that range as a conventional boat.
@@RandomGuyRandomNumber I figured as much. I'm curious what sea conditions are required to get the computer to shut down.
Enjoyable trial. Always great to see you two enjoying life afloat!
Also enjoyable reading the EV v Combustion comments 😆
Indeed! 😄
What an intriguing… would you call it a boat! … nevertheless something new for me and I love the new directions technology can take us. Amazing boat thanks all.
The seakeeping looks amazing for a smaller boat.
What's it handle like hitting a lobster pot rope in the bay i wonder?
That’s an incredible machine 😮
Wow, I have never seen anything like that before! Cool, stylish and hard to come by ........ AQUA HOLIC Socks! Haha When are they avaliable on in the shop?
Where can I get those socks PPLEASSSEEEEE?????😀😀😀😀
Great tender!
You guys just have to make this boat go at least 80 mph
I love it. Hope the price will come down with this technology, so that many people can afford it.
Which technology? Foiling: I agree. Electric drivetrain: I absolutely disagree.
Full carbon fibre construction will likely go down in price but won't be affordable (or necessary really) for decades because of other materials also being further developed and also changing in price.
@@pistonburner6448 you forget the bullshit about censoring in that comment. Really letting yourself go :(
Nice socks, Nick :)
What would it be like in rough sea?
Be good in an Italian lake
@@neiltitmus9744 What if there were 6' waves in the Italian lake? 😄
Isn’t the joy of ‘going boating’ the feel and noise of the swash?
That's "brilliant!"
Very nice. Now you need to do the Candela C8 with the cabin.
This was the C8, cabin is in the front
Nick what was in the bow of the boat?
I've got to be honest, I was too excited to remember to look! 😄
There’s a cabin in the front
Just imagine the true range you could have with a pair of Volvo pentas. And no limits on distance (57miles)
it is so smooth but imagine what it could have achived with the new propeler designs
And the higher density batteries coming on sale later in the year. 120-150 mile range now perfectly possible. Which for a days boating is more then enough. It's a great tech
Imagine what could be achieved with internal combustion engines.
It's important to separate the good aspect of this boat from the ridiculously horrible aspect of this boat:
The good: the hydrofoil system
The horrible: the battery-electric drivetrain
And then you need to separate all the other super-expensive stuff in addition to the foiling which gives it good efficiency like the fully carbon fibre construction.

@@pistonburner6448 boating can not exclude itself from the need to stop with combustion engines. It does not have an innate right to keep burning stuff when every other transport segment has gone combustion free. There is no reason now why cat D and C boats are not electric already. They could easily be so. And I fully expect that if they don't move towards getting rid of combustion engines, then legislation will force them.
@@patrickjr11 I am pretty new to this. Do you which propellor designs and battery tech are mentioned? I would like to dive deeper. Thanks.
@@patrickjr11 "Need to stop with combustion engines"?? What?? Why would there be a need to "stop with combustion engines"?
"Combustion free"?? What are you talking about? Why would boating have to go "combustion free"?
Do you also not at all understand the basics of this industry, of environmental technology, of economics? Do you not understand how expensive electric vehicles are and what they do to society?
Nick will you have to update your saying of "if you're floating you're boating" now? ha ha
🤔
Perfect Tender for a Silent Yacht 😊
Awesome tech and of course an awesome video as well.
Cheers, Nick 👌👍
Thank you!
That is great,will be awesome when they have long range,I want one 😂😂
Very impressive!
Hey Nick now that's another first for the channel a flying boat and not an aircraft with canoes on the wings....very clever stuff have a great weekend both of you 👍
You too!
Fantastic boat and the concept is also great becouse you make no damage to the wall With waves.
I'll bet anything, this is in the next Bond movie.
My boat was 20 years old and the diesel engine was as good as new - I wonder what those batteries will be like in 20 years!!
