Aquaculture Eboat

⚓️ AQUACULTURE EBOAT

The NABCREW Zero AirBlue 1240 Electric is an advanced electric boat designed for sustainable and efficient maritime transport. Developed by Moen Marin in collaboration with Pascal Technologies and R2 Marine, the vessel targets personnel transport needs within the aquaculture industry.

The Zero AirBlue 1240 has an overall length of 12 meters and a beam width of 4 meters. It has a shallow draft of 1.4 meters, making it suitable for coastal and inshore operations. The boat accommodates between 6 and 8 passengers comfortably.

Powered entirely by electricity, the Zero AirBlue 1240 features a battery system with a total capacity of 378 kWh. This enables the boat to reach a top speed of 30 knots and a cruising speed between 20 and 25 knots. Its operational range reaches approximately 40 nautical miles per full battery charge. The vessel supports rapid AC/DC charging systems, significantly reducing downtime between trips.

The hull incorporates Pascal Technologies' AirHull innovation. The AirHull system generates a cushion of air beneath the hull, reducing hydrodynamic drag and energy consumption by up to 50 percent compared to conventional hull designs. This results in improved speed, greater range, and enhanced overall efficiency.

Moen Marin, the primary manufacturer, operates out of Norway and specializes in electric and hybrid vessels for aquaculture. Pascal Technologies contributes energy-efficient propulsion and hull design expertise, while R2 Marine, a Finnish naval architecture firm, provides optimized structural engineering to complement the AirHull concept.

🏄🏾‍♂️MADE IN CANADA ESURF BOARD

The EZ Series electric surfboard, crafted by E-Surf Sport in Drummondville, Canada, offers a versatile watercraft suitable for various riders. Available in two models—EZ Standard and EZ Pro—both share the same physical design, differing only in motor power.

The EZ Standard is tailored for beginners and casual riders, providing a smooth and controlled ride with strong stability. The EZ Pro, equipped with a more powerful motor, reaches speeds up to 40 km/h and offers a battery life ranging from 60 to 90 minutes.

Both models feature a jet turbine propulsion system, eliminating the need for a large mast under the board and reducing the risk of accidents. The boards maintain constant contact with the water, enhancing stability and simplifying the learning process.

Control is managed through a handheld controller with a trigger mechanism for acceleration and deceleration, accompanied by a battery level indicator. An ignition key attached to the rider's wrist ensures safety by cutting power if the rider falls.

The EZ Series includes a rear storage compartment for essentials and utilizes interchangeable batteries, allowing for extended sessions without interruption. Charging options include a 3.5-hour recharge with a 110V outlet or a 1.5-hour recharge with a 230V power supply.

🌊 SMARTBUBBLE

The Smart Bubble is SeaBubbles' advanced electric hydrofoil vessel, designed for efficient and sustainable water transport. It measures 8 meters in length and 3.5 meters in width, accommodating up to 10 passengers. The boat cruises at a speed of 16 knots (30 km/h) and requires a takeoff speed of 10 knots (19 km/h) to lift its hull 30 centimeters above the water surface.​

Powered by a 90 kWh battery, the Smart Bubble offers approximately 1.25 hours of operation on a single charge. An optional 130 kWh battery extends the cruising time. The vessel can also be equipped with a hydrogen fuel cell system, storing up to 10 kg of hydrogen, to reduce dockside recharging time. ​The Smart Bubble features retractable hydrofoils with automatic flaps, enhancing stability and performance. Its flight control system adjusts the foils in real-time to maintain balance and minimize motion. The interior is designed for comfort, with a fully enclosed cockpit and customizable seating arrangements. ​

Constructed with composite materials, the Smart Bubble emphasizes durability and efficiency. Its design minimizes water resistance, leading to reduced energy consumption and a smoother ride. The vessel operates silently and without emissions, aligning with SeaBubbles' commitment to eco-friendly transportation. ​

SeaBubbles has initiated pilot programs in various locations, including Lake Annecy, to demonstrate the Smart Bubble's capabilities and promote sustainable urban mobility. The company continues to develop and refine its technology to meet the growing demand for clean and efficient water transport solutions.
