The lack of a wake is impressive.

I don't even know what to say for this "boat" except.... I want a ride!

Watching this, I couldn't help but think how cool this would be as a slightly larger Trimaran. It was beautifully smooth while on the foils but once stationary, it moved quite a lot side to side.

They could separate the trimaran hull from the superstructure and have a type of gimbal (stewart platform) in between to eliminate all motion when stationary.

I think the idea of this is mostly to keep moving from A to B. With no heads onboard, it would make sense that this is a short-trip vessel, and not one to spend loads of hours on. Perhaps more like a tender to transport from superyacht to shore and back again?

Completely impracticable, strange, and equally amazing. If you consider the cost that car companies pay to create a vision of the future then 2 million is virtually good value. And on top of that it works and functions.

Would love to see a helm like that on a ‘proper boat’

@@pistonburner6448 People confuse technology and design. The technology is the electric drive - which has been around for a while. Technology is not really important or useful in it's self - it's when it is turned into a product that it becomes something important. Computer mice and Graphical Interfaces existed for a decade before Apple turned them into a product. Sabine Hassenfelder has a good video on why Capitalism is Good that goes more into this in general. These will become like Teslas - they will serve as a symbol for a certain class of people, but aren't a serious general purpose car. On the other hand a Prius is. They are the in demand car for NYC Taxis. You will see these in elite settings and in parts of Asia where image is more immediately important than the actual practicality of them. You could expect a few here in NYC as a modern Commuter Boat between NYC and the Hamptons and points in between.

@@pistonburner6448 Name another boat like this. Electric motors are superior to internal combustion engines and they're just at the start of their journey where countries, especially China, are ploughing money into motors, batteries and charging. If we're talking about environmenmtal disaster, that's the oil industry for you. China are already producing small family cars with battery packs that can do 400 miles and don't use Cobalt or Nickel. The rate at which battery capacity, kilowatt hours are increasing while prices and charging times are decreasing is outstripping any room for improvement of internal combustion engines that rely on petrol and diesel. The second thing you fail to factor in is the price of oil is being controlled by OPEC+, led by Russia and Saudi Arabia and they're cutting production by millions of barrels to push up prices. If the USA continues to unilaterally sanction whatever country it wants, countries, especially oil producers, will push back, dumping the petro dollar. BRICS with it's 6 new members will control 40% of the global reserves of oil and 30% of it's consumption. When Venezuela joins, and they will join, BRICS will control 67% of global oil reserves. What's the US gonna do, sanction BRICS countries and in doing so, the countries that control two thirds of global reserves? How do you think they'll respond? By cutting production, pushing up costs in the West while seling to each other cheaply. So unless you live in a BRICS country or the global south, you'll be paying more and more for oil products, one more reason why electric motors are the way ahead.

Finally we can see the ultra rich being taxied around like in sci-fi movies and games :D Surely this will be used in a bond movie or something. Kinda puts a smile on your face seeing stuff like this.

It’s a floating dining room/cocktail lounge and I enjoy both. 👍🏻

GREAT CONCEPT -- THE FUTURE LOOK BRIGHT!

Great video. Very interesting “boat”.. .question not answered though is what happens if you hit a wave that is higher than your clearance. Just a random wake could do that. . .do you slow down and take it like man, or let nature rip the foiled off the bottom of the boat as the wave pushes the hull up? With retractable foils they could raise the boat higher on rougher days. . .until then, I would taking this thing too far from the dock.

They are called a 'rubber-ducky', inflatable speed-boat and they are as common as muck. Not a raft.

Staggering piece of design, and some great ideas for the future.

That's something unique and foward thinking

How big must the foil be to handle a containership. Or will a lot of small ones do the trick as well ?

Great design. Salt water is to batteries what great white sharks are to seals and surfers off the Australian coast.

As a yacht tender? Maybe! As a water taxi? Ok! As a private boat, just a gimmick! As a commuter down the Dubia ? Yeah I could see it! At $2 million? Why? If you could link them together in an office configuration in Dubai on! But for $2 mil I want all the things missing, oh and the other come with a desk to work at!

It's like a Tesla truck mated with my grandparents' living room from West Palm Beach in the 90s. The foiling drive and controls are great. However, I guess I'm just not cultured enough to appreciate the interior design elements.

Great video of this amazing vessel! It would make more sense to have the helm positioned at the bow and build it as a catamaran. Everything in the future should have a hydrofoil system.

Love It. A Yacht towable version would super cool. As a tender it needs a little bit more seating.

The ultimate commuter ;)

How will it handle in 8' seas? How will the windows hold against a 10' rogue wave?

Amazing design, and brilliant execution. Love that big windowed cabin. It would be excellent as a cruise boat for scenic tourism, perhaps in cooler climates where getting outdoors is more challenging for guests. But in any real world that rear deck would be legally required to have a railing around it. Navier have a similar, smaller but probably more manoeuvrable electric foiler.

wonder if it has some sort of detection for like debris up front ahead like logs or things that can damage the front hydrofoil wing 🤔

It would make a nice tour boat/water taxi for some high rollers as is. Beyond that, It'll be interesting to see what they come up with.

That 'dashboard' screen is lovely.

Looks like the controls should be right in the front of the boat for the driving experience and put in a nice bathroom and a kitchenette in the blind spots with a nice living room with a king size bed with solar panels on top for emergency backup with retractable foils and you might be on to something

Awesome ❣️😲 Very interesting hydrofoil 👌🏼 Love from Berlin 🇩🇪 Ramsi 🙋🏻‍♂️

Really needs retractable foils for shallow water operation which will be what this kind of a boat will be.

Super whacky and idk how practical it is but its definitely beautiful and futuristic... It looks like it would be an amazing driving experience and the interior with the wide open views is breathtaking......id like to see these become a reality

wow, this is the future

Seems best suited to tender duty for a mega yacht. Are there actual high end resort shuttle needs really?

Please! someone buy me this boat, it is without a doubt the most amazing craft iv ever witnessed in this life. Excellent design.

Essentially it’s a floating greenhouse… I bet it gets HOT on board.

A warm glass of champagne is an absolutely amazing experience 😮

I think that's amazing thanks for that.

I am still wondering how a person can get this into dock, the side has glass and nothing really there for the person to go to the side to tie a knot, therefore in some sircumstances the captain will need to think better because of the wind since he cannot tie a knot from the middle or the front. Does the person well i guess captain need a person to help him on the dock to get this boat tied up to place? i guess the person would need to use the back ones first, which might not be handy in some perspectives.

incredible !!

Bravo! ❤your openness to future tech and to see BMW entering the marine world. On which, it would be curious to see if BMW adapt their Hydrogen tech (their car tech from the late 90’s, gathering mothballs). On this Tide, its fascinating.

Very cool boat for certain.

Very posh and luxurious but efficient and boardroom almost. Very nice for an on water meeting/ business deal. Or quick travel ❤ Fit for me👑

As a prototype, it's interesting. Still at this point it's not good for much. Sort of hard to fish off of it. You cannot sleep on it. As you said, it doesn't have a bathroom. I'm wondering if it needs gas engines and the placement of wings on the top to help increase the lift and the speed. Well I can only imagine the cost is astronomical. This had better be designed down the road to be sold to the ultra rich with purpose (or not). Thanks for the video.

Love it! Santa, need ya buddy! 😅

Even the powerful ac can't cast a shadow and protect you from sun rays. One has to use it in spring or autumn, definitely not summer or does it have blinders?

I could see this as a luxury hotel ferry in the Maldives.

Beautiful boat, but I won't take it cruising around the Bahamas... sand bars, coral head... y'all got the point. But it would be a perfect boat for the islands with some improvements. 😊

Got the name right , very cool .

Cool boat. Aquila should do something similar with their 36 catamaran.

The sea doesn't get calmer than that, and I think that's the only sea you could use It on.

The boat is a wow

"The possibilities are endless.!"

they should be using the water moving against the boat to generate electricity to be put back in the batteries while cruising. looks amazing!!

50NM is quite good. I would want a more relaxing interior. This 1980s futuristic look inside is horrendous. On board wifi would be a must since you have the foils to stabilize the ride. What type of boat hoist would be needed at the dock?

Coming from an industrial design background, I really love when talented designers take a crack at it because they killed it with the design. I just would like to see a scaled up version and variants (a day boat, like you cited) beyond just a ferry/shuttle style deisgn.

We live just north of North Miami on the intercoastal this would be a really good boat to go out to dinner in or to just cruise around and see the city lights in Miami.

Im imagining of a modern looking minimal flying yacht with suspension fins including a driveable drone and a 2 car garage

Love it but it’s falling short, if it were bigger and had a head or some sort of privacy area aft it would be a little more palatable. The power system probably could be some sort of hybrid electric. At least you would be able to charge the batteries on the generator as I don’t believe there are fast chargers in a port.

A floating living room, and it does the foil thing! Not bad, makes me wish I had a spare 2 mil!

I appreciate you showing us interesting boats, but yeah, I hope this is more a demonstrator than something the mfg is hoping to sell several of.

I want to see how this does in rough waters!

EPIC

I think it's a great proof of concept. A washroom etc., will come in the future. ;)

Has the right shaped roof to extend outwards, like a wing, say 10ft to give it extra lift and glide capabilities. Might make it more battery efficient? 2nd prototype!

The ultimate superyacht tender.

Would make a fine tender for the Motor Yacht “Pretentious”

Not a huge fan of the interior but a foil of that size on a motorboat is incredible. I would not be surprised if foils become much more popular in the near future.

I love it.

You're going to spend a lot of time cleaning those windows.
