Candela C-7
In 2019, we introduced the Candela C-7 to prove that the future of boats depends on electric propulsion and actively stabilized hydrofoiling. Winning numerous awards, gaining great customer feedback, an making an international sales record, the C-7 surpassed our expectations. Now available only in limited numbers pre-owned, the C-7 is an icon among electric boats, that has inspired customers and competitors alike, worldwide.
No going back
Once experienced, petrol boats
feel outdated forever.

Control at
fingertips
All controls, including ones for retracting the hydrofoils, are accessible on the 12-inch touchscreen. The driving experience and comfort were the prime focus areas when engineering the C-7, offering a quiet, smooth, and safe yet exciting ride with precision, stability, and style.

Easy smart
ride
The computer-assisted trim makes driving as easy as holding the steering wheel, even in side-wind and rough weather. C-7 is connected to the cloud, allowing for over-the-air updates and remote service to continuously optimize efficiency and performance.
Speed meets sustainability
Fast ride with unmatched efficiency.
The Candela C-7 delivers exhilarating speeds up to 30 knots while gliding silently above the waves. Its electric hydrofoil design cuts energy use and emissions, proving that high performance and true sustainability can go hand in hand.

Fully retractable foils for shallow waters
The foils and propulsion unit are fully retractable, enabling the C-7 to adapt seamlessly to any situation. Whether you’re trailering to a new location, storing the boat in limited space, or navigating shallow harbors and beaches, the retraction system ensures hassle-free handling. This flexibility, combined with its speed and sustainability, makes the C-7 as versatile on land as it is thrilling on the water.

Questions?
Here are the top five.
What is the maximum passenger capacity?
Driver + 700kg.
Are the foils retractable? Can you drive in shallow water?
Yes, the foils are fully retractable by the push of a button. In shallow water mode, draft is 0,7 meters. Also, the Candela C-7 can be launched and stored on a custom float-on trailer.
What is the cost of driving a Candela C-7?
The C-7 is 95 percent cheaper to drive than a gas-powered boat! A full charge costs 5-7 €. This is while a comparable fossil fuel bowrider would use fuel for 200 €.
What happens if you hit something in the water?
The foils are made from carbon fiber and are extremely strong, so hitting smaller debris will have little to no effect. Hitting a bigger object – a log or rock for example – will result in the foil breaking off at a designated point. So, the boat’s hull is spared from damage and buoyancy guaranteed.
How does Candela C-7 handle high waves and rough water?
Better than anything else you’ve driven. Candela C-7’s seakeeping capabilities are second to none. Meaning, instead of pounding the waves, we fly over them. There’s no slamming, no heaving or rolling. Waves up to 1,2 meter just pass under the hull.
In really rough conditions, Candela C-7 is like any other boat. You just reduce speed. However, the foils now act like a keel and give extra stability. See more on our YouTube channel.
