An incomparable yacht that stands out from the rest, the Foiler has everything to make lovers of exceptional voyages on the water dream! Indeed, this exceptional yacht will offer you a unique experience that you will not find on any other, given that its foils give it the ability to rise above the water. An overview of the Foiler!
Exceptional sensations aboard the Foiler yacht
A unique and promising experience that is unlikely to disappoint even the most adventurous, the Foiler is equipped with 4 retractable hydrofoils that allow it to rise above the water to create exceptional and intense sensations in all the comfort you need. These hydrofoils are made of carbon fiber. To ensure passengers can fully enjoy this exceptional adventure, comfort has not been neglected at Foiler. This very high-quality yacht has the necessary stability, fluidity, and insensitivity to wave interference to prevent seasickness.
The Foiler, the luxury yacht
The Foiler is 9,45 meters long, or 31 feet, 3,3 meters without the foils and 7,2 meters with the foils deployed. Its size allows it to fit into a superyacht garage. It was built in the United Arab Emirates and was unveiled at the 2018 Dubai International Boat Show. And since this luxury jewel was launched, 5 models have already found a buyer. The luxurious flying motorboat is easy and effortless to handle. With its futuristic and bold design, the foils of this beautiful boat remain out of the water when not in use, which does not require much maintenance. Its hull is made of carbon fiber. To deploy the foils of this yacht, simply press a "fly mode" button. Another "float mode" button allows you to return to the original configuration. If you want to treat yourself to this innovative and unique yacht, you will have to pay €990.
Power at the rendezvous
In addition to its design and guaranteed comfort, the Foiler yacht is also super powerful. Equipped with two 320 hp BMW engines giving it a power output of 40 knots, it also boasts two electric generators and two electric torpedoes. Thanks to its foils, Foiler can rise more than 1,5 meters above the water. And when the boat's hydrofoils are activated at full power, you could save up to 20% of fuel. Their deployment can only be activated when the boat reaches a speed of 18 knots. However, the boat begins sailing out of the water at 12 knots. This exceptional yacht can sail in fully electric mode up to 10 knots for 10 minutes.
On its foils, the yacht's top speed climbs to 40 knots, or 74 km/h, with 7 people and a driver on board. The Foiler has a range of 130 miles and a 300 L fuel tank.
“With this diesel-electric hybrid propulsion system, the Foiler is a modern yacht in every sense of the word, offering greater fuel efficiency to reduce environmental impact, lower operating costs and maximize range,” the company explains.
It's worth noting that it was in 2016 that the Swiss company Hydros and Enata, based in Dubai, focused on a 3D project of the Foiler 41, which at the time still required several years of research. But today, the Foiler is indeed real!
