Beskrivning
Candela C-8 is a premium electric hydrofoil boat that rises out of the water on hydrofoils, delivering long range, low energy consumption and a very smooth ride – much like an aircraft wing beneath the surface.
Operating hours: 149 h
Distance: 1612 NM
Hull number: SE-CSBC8020B323
Length: 8.5 m
Beam: 2.5 m
Date of manufacture: 2023-02
**Electric propulsion**
- 100% battery-powered
- Very low energy consumption thanks to the foils
- Quiet, vibration-free ride
**Hydrofoils**
The boat “flies” approx. 50–60 cm above the water surface
Significantly reduced drag → long range
Virtually no slamming in waves
Autopilot-like stabilization system (“fly-by-wire”)
**Range and speed**
Cruising speed: approx. 20–24 knots
Top speed: approx. 27 knots
Range: around 40 nautical miles
**Draft**
0.5 m in “shallow mode”
0.9 m in planing mode
0.8 m while foiling
1.5 m when the foils are deployed but the boat is not foiling
**Charging**
11 kW AC: approx. 6.5 hours (0–100%)
135 kW DC: < 30 minutes (10–80%)
**Interface**
15.4-inch touchscreen with Candela’s proprietary navigation and integration system.
**App**
Candela app with location, battery status, trip statistics, etc.
Geofencing (geo-fence) available as an option.
**Hull shape**
Hybrid hull designed for low-friction planing and low air resistance while foiling.
In planing mode, the foils are above the water surface, reducing marine growth and corrosion.
NOTE! Boat trailer not included!
