The personal watercraft can reach a top speed of 21knots given that it only weighs a mere 100kg. Rather than the passenger struggling to see past the view of the driver&#8217;s lifejacket as they would on a jet ski, the staggered seating allows the person seated behind to enjoy 360degree views, without the driver obstructing what they can see ahead of them.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.boatbookings.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/QuadrofoilWaterCraft.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-30868\" alt=\"The Quadrofoil seats a driver and passenger with room to spare and see!\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boatbookings.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/QuadrofoilWaterCraft.jpg\" width=\"695\" height=\"271\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>One of the Quadrofoil&#8217;s best selling points is that it&#8217;s electric; so no need to use petrol or pollute the water, and it doesn&#8217;t generate as much noise as other PWCs. It&#8217;s also unsinkable (and apparently not in the way the Titanic was!), with a completely hollow body that won&#8217;t allow any water in, so even if all the hydrofoil legs fall off, you won&#8217;t need to practice your swimming straight away. The first models of the Quadrofoil are due to be delivered in March 2015 &#8211; and one of them could be yours for \u20ac22,500.<\/p>\n<p>For more yacht related news, follow Boatbookings on <a title=\"Twitter\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Boatbookings\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Twitter<\/strong><\/a>, <a title=\"Google+\" href=\"https:\/\/plus.google.com\/b\/117894291802410908360\/+Boatbookings\/posts\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Google Plus<\/strong><\/a> and <a title=\"Facebook\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/boatbookingsyachtcharter\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Facebook<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Did you think that jet skis couldn&#8217;t get cooler?
