Video credit to Trey Williams (Marissa #55). Trey is a professional builder and a Seakeeper Ride installer and he sent us a video of his Marissa he was testing out with the Seakeeper Ride tabs installed. From Trey, "I was able to get some short running footage showing how well the Marissa hull works in small chop. The Marissa 18 is the best riding 18 footer I've ever been on and now with the seakeeper ride it makes it even better than before. Amazing hull design paired with technology is very impressive. Speed was about 26-27 mph."

The Candela Seven uses hydrofoils to lift the hull above water, cutting drag by up to 80%. Carbon fibre build, sensor-driven flight controls, and retrievable foils make it efficient and practical. With near-silent running, fast acceleration, and longer range than most electric boats, it delivers an entirely new boating experience. #CandelaSeven #ElectricFoiler #SilentSpeed #HarbourMasters
