Looks like it would be a fantastic tender for a yacht. Smooth transport of guests from yacht to port and so quiet you can have conversations while travelling.
looks so elegant, Swedish inventions afterall! Way to go Candela
👌
This is the future of boating for certain!
My only concern is the ever present debris that I have found over the years. You hope to see the debris but in real life this isn't the case. Being higher above the water will help for spotting . Still sooner or later you will find the water logged Simi floating tree trunk or branch/boards from docks etc.
Beautiful in every aspect. I think a removable hard top with solar panels to supplement the charge while it sits moored would be awesome.
I'm totally sold on hydrofoils. The stability is insane.
The stability is entirely computer generated. It's fly-by-wire.
Your moms stability is not bad either.
Very interesting ! Thanks for the review
Can't wait for this to be the norm, so most people can enjoy it. Looks awesome!
Love Silent Boats/Yachts~! Funny seeing other boats ride along side of the Candela as they have large wakes whereas the Candela is soooo smooth!!!
Awesome!
Very real review, thank you.
Never seen a boat like this, i'd love to try it!
Looks absolutly amazing
Thanks man. That boat is amazing. Great video. Thanks for sharing this with us. Peace, Calvin.
Only with electric! It is amazing what those small but extremely powerful and efficient motors allow to do! Silent, smooth, no fumes, no maintenance. Wow 😮. Can’t wait this becomes a mainstream 😀.
Well done brother Micha. Thanks for sharing. 😊🌎✨
Wow, that’s 007 level stealth, style, and tech!
And wealth
Wow, that is great tech.👍 It will be real progress when sustainability is common place in the marine industry.
Looks like a great boat I loved the fact that you don’t have to keep filling up with expensive gas ⛽️
Unless you can recharge on land, the electricity will come from your onboard generator.
Great Video! Love to see a dealer here on Vancouver Island British Columbia Canada
love it!
This is amazing, this is truly the future of electric Boating! Can't wait to see how this industry progresses over the next decade. Only thing preventing 99% of us from getting on is the $300k+ price tag. Currently you could get a brand new beautiful gas boat for a third of the price and use the rest to buy a corvette AND a down-payment on a house.
Pretty cool.
A small pop up windmill, a folding solar panel, and starlink is all this needs for living off the "grid"!!
Can't imagine how much better this space gets with further R&D, battery technology improvements, material science and manufacturing scalability! Really hoping this Tesla-esque business path(start with Roadster, then Model S, then mass-scale) goes the whole way!
Definitely gotta get a rep out to Diacovery Bay, California!
of all the elctrek editors i am most jealous of you, micah. you get to do all the cool stuff while fred has to sift through financal documents and stuffy press releases.
That's funny, Fred just got to ride an electric jet ski (video on our channel) and I'm jealous of him for that! 😀
"And we settle in like an old man into a warm bath" lamo ... 😆 🤣
Wow!
That is a pretty cool boat. If only I had that kind of boat money! 😂
Slick!!
not a boat person, but this thing is awesome
Really cool! Where's the affiliate link for the boat? ;)
can you drive it in bad weather with big waves, I only these tpyes of boats shipping aound in clear water...
Not sure if it was mentioned in the video and I just missed it, but what is the range/endurance of it?
How big is your wallet? :)
are you going against the tide?
are you going against the wind ?are you going against the current ?are you going against the waves?
Or is it a combination of all of the above?
Asking for a friend….lol 😆
You did not miss it.
What do you think was under the sheet of plywood?
You guessed it, the good Ole combustion engine that sounds nice & will run all day : )
50nm+ @ 24kn.
Good Video And Great Selling Points. There Is One Question. What Is The Range On A Full Battery Charge. Also Where Can We Charge The Battery At Boat Port In America.
Another reviewer said 5 to 8 hours use depending on conditions. Most marinas have a power supply with each birth so charging will be easy, just plug in when moored up.
I would love if it had some kind of gimbal stabilization on top of a SWATH hull (with hydrofoils for higher speeds). Then you would totally eliminate seasickness also when at anchor.
It does have stabilization through sensors that monitor the water surface plus gyroscope.
@@danielm6737 I know, but I want the boat to be completely stabilized at rest also. Not just reduce the motion, but completely eliminate it.
@@jimj2683 Those are called zero speed stabilisers, and available for "most" boat - if you have the money and space.
Gotta have that Tesla in the frame. 👌🏼 Excited to see the future of ferry boats from Candela!!
Ya the big white monster
Nice plywood
very nice
you allow, are you a king
you are jo-king
sample only, diy if you want to have it for yourself, money orderer, money's king
Watch out for the Manatees here in Florida, no flying thru no wake zones.
You just described a Macintosh. Hardware and software engineering in one house.
It's quiet but could we get the numbers? How many dBs with max speed?
This is unreal! How well does it handle waves?
imo it should raise out of the water 3 feet more, because now it already hits 2 foot waves.
@@3DPeter I can see that happening for slow swellings of water where its got enough time to float up wave, but my gut says it would react fast enough to ride over choppy waters with the same clearance. I'm sure they'll test this out and have some solution, but yeah, would like to see how it does. Next one would be waves hitting laterally or sideways..

Nice boat! Can it be used for waterskiing?
Gabriele from Candela here. C8 works great as a waterskiing boat! Ideal for beginners since you dont need to cross the boat’s wake like you would on a conventional boat. You also get a cool view of the boat lifting on the foils from back there!
With its 50KW (67HP) motor, I seriously doubt it can pull up an adult slalom skier.
What kind of battery has it got in it? How big is it--length, beam? Is it trailerable? What's the displacement? What's the draft? What kind of chargers does it use--is that a CCS? How far can it go at cruising speed? What's the top speed? What's the cruising speed? Cool overview but would love to have seen more details.
Me too!
The only thing I heard was 50KW motor which is 67HP -IF- that is its' output power to the prop shaft. Less than 67HP to the props if that is its electric consumption rating.
Watch Björn Nyland's video.
There is so much I love about the C8. It is like sailing or flying without all the work. It is quiet. And you are not burning $ks in fuel that hurts the climate almost as much as your savings account.
Climate 😂
🤙
Do the foils retract if not what is the draught.
Foils retract.
Now you just need a "boat-load" of 💰💰
Is there nothing electrification will improve?
👊
Simply put.... GORGEOUS BOAT!!! Electric is the Future. I'm Sold!!
Hoprfully there will be more manufactures of this tech... Should bring the cost down or get a rowing boat
"It’s not cheap, coming in at around €300,000, but then again, that’s the price of comparable premium gas-powered boats in this 28-29′ size class. So if you already have boat-buying money, then a boat like this might actually be in your budget."
Their previous smaller model cost about the same which seemed excessive, but the C8 is reasonable as long as you appreciate what it offers as "premium".
If your idea of luxury is big and heavy you still might not be impressed.
$300k for any carbon fiber 28' is not out of line. Candela gets my vote for putting all that tech to the best result.
You never really addressed the range issue. How long before a recharge is necessary? Can you run all day? Does it run for two or three hours? What type of batteries does it use? No specifics. smh
Range,Range,Range!
Do you not see the irony of showcasing an electric and virtually silent boat and then overlaying the entire video with back ground music ?
So much real state for solar panels
W O W
How does this boat handle animal strikes, i.e. manatee, sea turtles, etc?
at that price point really the perfect superyacht tender, is it not? Silent, elegant. Can be charged from the mother ship...
It is small boat with big boat comfort.
Nice. And the prop is guarded so it doesn't hurt marine life? although the foils might. they might need shrouds too. Or fancy sensors to go above.
@3:00 ...counter-rotating propellers...
Contra
Does it come with an oar in case you run out of juice?
As if gas-powered boats can't run out of juice.
😍😍😍😍😍💪😎💪
Now I want a boat 😕
50kW. So like 75hp?!
Hydrofoils would not work in my territory because there is so much deadwood/fishing nets,/wildlife in the water with you. Hit any of that and I bet those foils would rip right off (ka-ching), not to mention possible fines for any damages you cause.
The whole point of a vehicle is how far it will travel….Well?
One of the main advantages of electric drive should be little engine noise. So why the background music when the boat is in motion? Is it really because the boat is much noisier than the marketing would like to pretend. What is the music hiding?
Why all the music overlay, I have no idea what this thing sounds like.
Walk into your closet and close the eyes. That's what it sounds like.
When will the creatures be driving these themselves too. Yay
Yeah they only cost $100,000 wild
Would have been better without the sleazy music.
You don't fly or drive boats, you conn a boat. R.I.P. Papa Jim. 😞
Is that Mia Khalifa riding on your boat?
way too much fluff, no details, no performance data, no battery or technology details…. very dissapointing, it could have been really informative..
yeah like the presenter admits … “i have no idea” ..
EvCar and Dirt is sorta Ok
EvBoat and Water is sorta Not Ok.
When they developed a underwater charger and under water cooled EvBattery and under water cooled motor, then charging in a wet raiiny dock will be sorta Ok
I Do Not mean above water charger I mean Underwater charger
Flying? Not really. Hovering? Possibly.
The lithium slave miners are so happy for this over priced boondoggle
There are so many other options if you want to be out on the water enjoying life with your family and friends
Great but can you go from bergen to shetland in this boat? Please take a look at my build . RUclips teamsandvik. Starfish 27 build. Must be better using oil than coal el. By the way great vlog😀
