Jetski

Once billed as the world's fastest production electric boat and the world's fastest production hydrofoiling craft, the Valo Hyperfoil has now hit the water as a working alpha prototype – but curiously, its claimed top speed has dropped considerably.

After honing its craft on land, Tarform is looking to drop the fast, exhilarating spirit of its Luna e-motorcycle into the water. The Raye PWC takes on the form of a piece of molten metal poured and cooled into a sleek, slippery vessel with up to 120 hp.

This year, all-electric water toys took on many shapes and styles, from powerful add-on e-drives to hydrofoil submersibles. Before swapping the calendar out, take a look back at the hardest charging, deepest diving electric water toys of 2022.

The Valo Hyperfoil aims to kick off a new class of "ultra-performance" electric personal watercraft, a two-seat jetski that can rise out of choppy water on extendable hydrofoils, and go faster than any other electric or hydrofoiling craft you can buy.

Jet skis are handy things to have on a yacht – but most look like they were designed by people with their caps on backwards, who might say things like "yo" and "gnarly," and who probably don't put their pinkies up when they drink tea, the savages.

Whatever's in the water down in Florida, we want some. As ridiculously awesome as it is awesomely ridiculous, the Shadow Six Typhoon places a UTV body on top of a pair of high-performance jet skis, creating the world's first "aquatic utility vehicle."

Back in 2018, Hungary's Narke revealed the world's first electric personal watercraft designed for proper series production – the GT45. Now the company has announced its latest model, with a more powerful electric drive and room for three.

Jetskis are a bit like motorbikes for the water. Hydrofoil boards and boats allow users to cut through and rise above the waves. The WaveFlyer merges the two, and throws in electric propulsion for a cleaner and quieter ride.

Boats built to have jet skis docked to the rear and propel them through the water are one way of adding some extra carrying capacity. The latest model from Dockitjet does this with a decidedly agile footprint, whether in action or packed down and stowed on the rear of any model of jet ski.

Hungarian company Narke claims it's building the world's first electric personal watercraft (PWC) designed for proper series production. The Electrojet is a 60-hp (45-kW), carbon-bodied electric sit-down jet ski capable of doing 35 mph (55 km/h) in near silence.

This wacky concept vehicle from Geneva looks kind of cool, in a KTM X-Bow kind of way, and demonstrates how electric drivetrains could make multi-mode vehicles much easier to build. We've got to be honest, though, we've got no idea how it's supposed to work.

Dubbed the "ultimate sea toy," the Seakart 335 was recently on show at the Cannes Yachting Festival Boat Show and the Monaco Yacht Show. The smart looking inflatable boat is available in two versions that can seat three or five passengers.
