01 / 05

The RaceBird features a fully-electric outboard motor that is produced by marine propulsion experts at Mercury Racing

Behind the pilot sits the battery, which is built by Kreisel Electric and incorporates immersion cooling technologies

With instant torque the RaceBird will lift onto its foils above the water to reduce drag and maximise energy efficiency

The cockpit resembles that of a single-seater race car with a steering wheel, pedals and only enough space for one pilot

The pilots will be protected by an enclosed safety canopy which will need to be opened when entering or exiting the boat
