    It is called a magnethydrodynamic drive. There have been german and US prototypes tested with it. It is likely hideously inefficient. The very strong unshielded magnetic fields and high electric current going trough the water probably make it very easy to spot. Corrosion and fouling of the electrodes will be an issue limiting operation time to a few hours at best before they need replacement.

    you can add corrosion reducing "targets" into basically anything, they use specialty alloys usually zinc based to cast little bolt on things to be easily replaceable. These objects are preferentially "targeted" by the galvanic effects, and you just swap them out when they wear out. There are many varieties to suit specific applications. (I'm not a manufacturer of these things, but have used them extensively in boating and commercial fishing (refrigeration systems using seawater to chill fish need many of these inside their heat exchange units, for example)

My current boat is fiberglass but I am actually interested in an aluminum catamaran and am cautious but not overly concerned because I know it is manageable with proper care, regular anode replacement and isolation transformers to reduce stray current. However, having an active high power electrical device below the water line opens up an entirely different level of corrosion. I am sure they have considered it and I am definitely not suggesting it is impossible, I was just curious what steps they have taken to mitigate this issue. Cheers!

    most motor yachts over 60' have onboard fuel polishers that have serviceable filters because getting any uncontaminated fuel can be hard. Most motor yachts over 80' are hybrid diesel electrics, they have notable benefits. they could build diesel electrics for 20' boats but you see, real-estate and weight capacity are at a premium on a 20' boat... I'm waiting for solar cells to develop, a sail on a sailboat could hold a lot of solar power but they're still to delicate and still to heavy. Outboard motors are easy and cheap to convert to electric.

All Wind/Solar Farms must be decommissioned & dismantled. Their tax subsidies can't go to more worthy goals.

Now have that same tesla drag a dump truck behind it and see how long the power lasts.

    Honestly the only situations where I see electric boats being feasible are catamarans given how efficient they are, and the large footprint allows for a lot of solar panels up top to compensate. But small boats like the candela just seem too unrealistic other than for rich people to show off to their friends for 10 minutes then back to the dock to recharge... $330k for a 27 foot boat with 50 miles of range CRUISING, 32mi at 30kts... lol, thats less than 30 minutes of run time, then back to charge for another 13 hours.
