Awesome to see this diversification in content, recently the electric scooter, this boat, ionity interview, hydrogen car and so on. Very cool

[@bjornnyland]

I have lots of various content in the past: - Electric scooter in Thailand - Electric stroller - Electric ferry - Electric aeroplane - Solar panels

[@MrUled]

@@bjornnyland this is true, I've seen all of them 😄 usually spread out far I between. I like the variety

[@s.kxx1956]

Finally something that is more “boat” than the EQS ride

[@bjornnyland]

Candela is actually way less boat because of its hydrofoil.

[@jeanchristopheb]

That was the Citroen C5 that had the fixed steering center column, yes.

[@danielsvensson9802]

I have my own Electric converted boat, but my top speed is 6 knots, and this boat looks so Nice!

[@tolson-vkn]

I love when Bjorn hangs out with Marcus

[@lucamuller6729]

Cool Company with a really good partner now, impressive! Thanks for the tour

[@TheDjarEl]

looking forward to the 1000 km boat challenge ;)

[@mattiasjohansson8664]

Yes, an Oslo Helsingborg Oslo test with Candela is an awesome idea. Just need two versions, one by sea and one with it on a trailer behind a Polestar. Of course, Björn needs to compare it with the electric ferry Helsingborg Helsingör

kzbin.info/www/bejne/noWkpX5rm913jbssi=Sv3Snm8KabACzaRx We have revently broken a world record: 420 nautical miles (~750 km) in 24hr with fastcharging

[@D0li0]

This is excellent stuff, been waiting decades for someone to do this ever since learning about hydrofoils. Amazing results.

[@GoldenCroc]

Hydrofoils are great, but not as great as many people think when it comes to efficiency in different hull types. Some people think they afford many times over efficiency improvement in all occasions and thats just not the case.

[@mathewtx3214]

"The Tesla of boats" I like that ! Its so smooth !

[@barisbayar84]

It's really great, when electrical technology progresses in this way and combines with the dynamics of the sea and physics, excellent experiences will occur. It was great in silence, especially with the g effect and wave shocks on those on the boat... I like it thanks Bjorn

[@konsul2006]

That boat looks so beautiful. I'm in love!

[@jaakkoiswatching6437]

@@dejo1280 The 540 nautical mile challenge!

[@GoldenCroc]

For those interested in comparing to a car, this boat at the recommended cruise speed of 22 knots (about 40 km/h) uses (according to my calculations) a smidge over 600wh/km. That might seem like a lot but is actually very good compared to most ICE boats of this size, water is a dense medium to push through. Edit: Haha, I made the calculations from the specs of the battery capacity, range and cruise speed in the beginning of the video. Just a little while later, the consumption numbers are shown in the video... just a simple conversion from nautical miles to km is all you need. Serves me right for commenting before watching the whole video!

[@tesla-spectre]

yeah most ICE boats I saw easily consume 30L/100km (if we use the usual car measurement)... not to mention oil, pollution etc

[@GoldenCroc]

Yes, A traditional planing boat of the same size and weight as this would consume about 60-80l/100km with a petrol engine and 40l/100km with a diesel one.

[@UnkleSi]

Wow is beautifully quiet!

[@karlbenz4925]

Fantastic boat, bring on the future now!

[@jaymenolan7083]

I ❤ this! Beautiful...cool musical accompaniment-relaxing! Thanks, Bjorn!

[@MZ-tm1tw]

Yes Candela C8 is super silent 😎👍 if possible use car technology light weight materials for soundproofing the cabin to be as silent as possible. For overnight camping and charging a lot of boat owners want a sound proofed cabin. A small Bimini roof with solar panels should also be a option for free solar charging. Candela should partner up with Polestar brining the first Sea supercharger station to Oslo Harbor Norway and then the second Sea supercharger station in Strömstad Sweden. Another great option should be a range extender electric generator using bio gas or bio diesel or E85 ethanol for hybrid mode possibly a scaled down version of the generator used in Heart ES-9 hybrid electric passenger plane.

[@ynse4568]

Nice video. Have a Polestar, so would be perfect with a Polestar boat too :)

[@johnbullers8647]

What a beautiful vessel!

[@tesla-spectre]

This is crazily good, . . but the prize tag is also pretty crazy (maybe not for rich Norwegians but for us here 300,000€ + is pretty steep for such a small boat)

[@frankleonard6570]

wow! now thats one impressive set up! very cool boat! 👌 seems to handle very good

[@albertarb7655]

yes, citroën c5 had this wheel feature

[@topgunm]

Love the design of the boat, hydrofoil, and how quiet it is! Soo cool! Too bad we have to wait for the electrical infrastructure to support electric boats so thay they will be as useable as electric cars are in Norway now. Most of my cabin use with the boat is only 1 NM a day, but there are several days a week we take longer (1-2 hour) trips, waterski behind the boat etc. You need at minimum a charger at your home dock, and fast chargers at popular destinations.

[@guidomescalito]

great video thanks Bjørn!

"Candela" has a couple of meanings... one of them is slang for a gentleman's sausage 🤣🤣🔥

[@kwiks987]

I think you should retest the Polestar 2 after the update. They should charge faster and be much more efficient.

[@anydaynow01]

The efficiency of hydrofoil with the high initial torque and small size of electric motors is something that should be used more especially since the motor can be submerged and the drive train is much less complicated. This would be a pretty good use case for a small car carrier ferry with a bank of hybrid Karno generators using efuel/H2/RNG/biofuel. Smaller passenger only ferries should be able to get away with just batteries.

[@idomaghic]

Candela actually have a small passenger ferry project (P-12) in motion where the first public transport pilot is scheduled to start in Stockholm in 2024.

[@mhofma12]

This is amazing and probably extremely difficult to design around all those challenges. Keep developing very cool!!

[@chrisjeanneret5091]

I believe that the Edsel (Ford) had a fixed keypad in the steering wheel hub with buttons for the automatic transmission.

[@bhmbill]

Did not even disturb Marcus' hair!

[@paulsmyers203]

I think a hydrofoil electric boat sounds like a great way to get from Florida to Bahamas. It's about 60 miles - seems like it could be really easy.

[@konsul2006]

Are they planning to use a "toroidal" boat propeller at some point?

[@PhilippZ]

This would be perfect to haul ass through the South Florida intracoastal waterway full of no wake zones.

[@davidkendall2272]

Fantastic, thanks for doing this Bjorn, love these all electric transportation alternatives. Norway is so far ahead of the U.S. in moving in the right direction. Super impressive demonstration of Candela C-8. They should sell a lot of them.

[@jamiegibbon2574]

Are any lessons from the America's cup being learned on hull design and how to get up on the aerofoils as quickly as possible. \ It's also still a big traditional boat shape - does it need to be if it travels above waves? How aerodynamic is it above water? Anything to be learnt from Aptera/Lightyear 0/Mercedes EQXX? to improve efficiency above water?

[@ram64man]

Chopping fish with the foil ?

[@b127_1]

I wonder if candela are going to add a 10 or 20kw range extender at some point. The range as is is good enough for most people, but with a small engine it would be basically infinite.

[@markolafslot6439]

Is it only me who is concerned about what would happen if you accidentally dropped the charging cable in the salt water?
