BAR Technologies partnered with Spirit Yachts to develop SpiritBARTech35EF, the world’s longest range electric flying boat sporting a powertrain from Equipmake. Its bespoke 120 kWh battery pack can travel 100 nautical miles (115 miles) when fully charged at a comfortable cruise speed of 22 knots (25 mph), with a top speed of 28 knots (32 mph).
This 35-foot electric boat is made of titanium and cold-molded wood with a carbon fiber reinforced shell, a structure that weighs in at just a tonne. SpiritBARTech35EF marks the first time that Equipmake’s electrification technologies have been applied to the electric marine market, which is expected to grow to $16.6-billion by 2030. For something you can’t take out during the winter, the Spacruzzi Hot Tub Boat should come in handy.

Ian Foley and his team are true leaders in the field of electrification and share our ethos of lightweighting and competition-bred design and development. We look forward to exploring further opportunities to work together,” said John Cooper, CEO, BAR Technologies.
