the ‘quadrofoil‘ is an electric hydrofoiling personal watercraft which takes recreational marine transportation to a new level of environmental friendliness. its custom developed outboard motor propulsion with c-foil technology, enables driving that is several times more efficient than other water-vehicles on the market. the buoyancy force which lifts the vessel above the surface, minimizes drag and thus further improves the battery use economics.
