Electrically Amplified Hydrofoiling Pedalo Takes the Monthly Toy Spotlight
Top gadget, y'all! Check out the new E-JetCycle, the slickest watercraft on the market right now.
This bad boy, brought to you by the brainy folks at JetCycle, started off as a pedal-powered monohull back in 2020. But they didn't just rest on their laurels, oh no! They've upped the ante with the 2024 E-JetCycle. This sleek trimaran is more stable and has bigger foils, making it a real beast on the water.
Now, you might be thinking, "That thing is massive!" And you'd be right—it's about 3.5m long and over 2m wide. But don't worry, it ain't all brute strength. The E in its name stands for "electric," 'cause this baby's been boosted with a 200W electric motor. So, yeah, it still needs pedal power, but with a helping hand from the motor, you'll feel like you're floating with the wind at your back.
Up for some speed? The E-JetCycle can reach speeds of up to 10 knots and cruise at around 8 knots. Need to get going fast? Take-off speed is just 5 knots, so you can lift off without breaking the speed limit of most coastal rivers and harbors.
