    Development platform

    At the beginning of 2024, we decided to build our own hydrofoil boat as a prototype and development platform, with the goal of showcasing the benefits of hydrofoils and pushing the boundaries of foiling performance even further. The result is a 5.5m, full-carbon hydrofoil vessel designed to carry up to four people.

    Hydrofoil Jetski

    Oceanflight partnered with Tranquility, founded by TakeOff Enginnering, to equip their hydrofoil jetski, taking on the exciting challenge of adapting hydrofoil technology to a very small vessel. The result is a testament to the versatility of hydrofoils and highlights Oceanflight’s commitment to advancing maritime innovation across all vessel sizes.

    Kai Concepts Partnership

    Oceanflight partnered with San Francisco based Kai Concepts to transform a catamaran used as a hydrofoil technology demonstrator from all mechanical to electronic stabilization. The result of this collaboration is a testimonial to the potential of hydrofoil technology and reinforces Oceanflight’s continued dedication to transforming maritime experiences.

    FULL SCALE PROTOTYPE

    Next step in the cooperation with Tyde was to equip a full-scale 14 meter long 10-ton prototype of THE ICON in Portoroz, Slovenia with a foil control system. This full-scale test boat was subjected to extensive on-water testing, offering invaluable insights to enhance its systems.

    Prototyping Model

    As kick-off for the cooperation between Oceanflight and Tyde, a radio-controlled prototype of THE ICON was developed. This scaled model, measuring 1.9 meters in length and weighing 35 kilograms, is a 1:7 scale representation of the final design. The prototype was put to the test in a series of trials conducted at a lake near Munich. The model’s performance successfully showcased the potential of THE ICON.
