Candela C-7 - 7.70m Motor boat

Candela C-7 Overview

Introducing the Candela C-7: Redefining Electric Boating with Hydrofoiling
Unveiled in 2019, the Candela C-7 revolutionized the future of boating by showcasing the power of electric propulsion and hydrofoiling. Garnering numerous accolades and surpassing sales milestones, it has now become an iconic electric boat, exclusively available in pre-owned condition. The C-7's remarkable Foil System, controlled by advanced computer technology, ensures an almost silent and incredibly smooth driving experience, even in turbulent waters.
By utilizing fully submerged foils, the C-7 effortlessly glides above the water's surface, offering an unparalleled level of efficiency. At a speed of 20 knots, its energy consumption is equivalent to a mere 0.1 liters of gasoline per nautical mile. All controls, including hydrofoil retraction, are conveniently accessible through the intuitive 12-inch touchscreen interface.
Engineered with a primary focus on driving experience and comfort, the C-7 guarantees a tranquil, seamless, and secure yet exhilarating ride. Thanks to its computer-assisted trim functionality, navigating through side-winds and rough weather becomes as effortless as holding the steering wheel. Furthermore, the C-7 remains connected to the cloud, enabling over-the-air updates and remote servicing to continuously optimize efficiency and performance.
With a range of 40 nautical miles per charge, cruising at 22 knots, the Candela C-7 surpasses its electric counterparts currently available in the market, except for the Candela C-8, by achieving an impressive 2.5 times longer range. Embrace the future of electric boating with the Candela C-7.

Exterior and interior design

The debut of Candela C-7, the maiden model from a promising shipyard in Sweden, has skyrocketed the company to international stardom. Instantly captivating attention, the boat's sleek Scandinavian design embodies a blend of sophistication and cutting-edge technology. However, beneath the surface, there are more compelling features to discover. Notably, the vessel is equipped with an electric drive and is capable of sailing with retractable foils, revealing its dedication to sustainable energy solutions.

Amenities on board

The boat provides a satisfactory amount of comfort and is outfitted with all the amenities typically found on gasoline and diesel models. It features a bathing platform at the back, a roomy cockpit, and two seats at the front. The extendable foils do not disrupt anything else, and when operating at low speeds or parking, they extend out to accommodate the pilot and assistant's chairs.

Features

The Candela C-7 is equipped with hydrofoil technology, enabling it to reach speeds of up to 30 knots. Even at a speed range of 19-23 knots, it can cover over 50 nautical miles on a full charge. The utilization of a hull bowrider was a deliberate decision, reducing the overall weight of the vessel. While this concept is not novel, the shipyard stands apart as the sole entity successfully transitioning it from a mere idea to achieving mass production.

Swimming area

The boat is perfect for extended voyages in coastal waters, offering cost savings without compromising the owner's requirements. The electric motor demands minimal upkeep and experiences significantly fewer breakdowns compared to traditional fossil fuel engines.

Revolutionary Propulsion and Avionics Systems Redefining Boating

At the core of the Candela C-7's exceptional performance lies our cutting-edge propulsion unit. Recognizing the unmatched efficiency of our hydrofoil system, we developed a proprietary and streamlined propulsion unit that perfectly complements the C-7's capabilities. This innovation, among many others, has made the C-7 a reality.
Equipped with advanced avionics, the C-7 boasts a digital Flight controller that utilizes ultrasonic sensors, gyros, accelerometers, and GPS technology. These sensors precisely measure the boat's position, speed, and acceleration, enabling the automatic adjustment of the foils an impressive 100 times per second. This ensures a smooth and secure ride for passengers, even in challenging conditions such as strong winds and waves. Prepare for an exhilarating drive while enjoying a sheltered experience.
The hydrofoil system integrated into the C-7 brings a whole new dimension to boating. By reducing friction and enabling extended electric range, hydrofoils offer an entirely different and thrilling experience compared to conventional boats. Our commitment to efficiency led us to adopt the most precise and efficient solution available: fully submerged foils, expertly stabilized by powerful computer technology. Embrace the future of boating with the Candela C-7 and discover a world of unparalleled performance and excitement.
