Lets see, electric motors and salt spray, lithium batteries and salt water...
Didnt we just learn some lesson about this from recent global warming events in coastal cities?

This concept has been around for years (in diesel and gasoline form).
None of them have been commercially successful even without electrification.

Reminiscent of the Caspian Sea Monster. That didn't end well, either.

Looks to me like a solution in search of a problem. But they used “sustainable” three or four times in the short article, so it’s got to be good.
I think “sustainable” is the frosting on the “electric” cake. Or is it vice versa?
Between “sustainable” and “electric,” they’ve got an $8 billion order book. Having worked in a number of startup companies, I find that hard to believe. Maybe they talked to enough companies that COULD order $8 billion of product, but I seriously doubt they have $8 billion of orders. At $1 million per, that would be orders for 8,000 of the things. Even at $4 million each, that’s an order book of 2,000 units. And that would be across maybe a dozen markets? So each market ordered 170 units?

WIG aircraft are pretty cool.
I am guessing they are probably really scary to ride in in rough seas and high winds.

As a result, we are on track to deliver our product to market by the mid-decade.
Any one taking bets?

A toy for the 1% it looks like to me. $200,000 for a boat that can fly. What happens when the battery goes dead and you are out to sea?

I’d rather ride in this than one of the ‘electric planes’ that folks are trying to develop.
