2024 Candela C-8: The Future of Electric Foiling Boating

The Candela C-8 is a revolutionary 28-foot electric hydrofoil boat that combines cutting-edge technology with sustainable design. Crafted from 100% carbon fiber and powered by a 69kWh Polestar battery, this 2024 model delivers an impressive 57 nautical miles of range at 22 knots while reaching a top speed of 27 knots.

With seating for 8 passengers including the driver, the C-8 offers versatile configurations including Day Cruiser and Centre Console layouts, available in Open, Hard-top, and T-Top options. Its patented C-Foil system lifts the hull out of the water at approximately 14 knots, dramatically reducing hydrodynamic drag for exceptional energy efficiency.
