Revolutionary Foiling Boat Design by 36-Year-Old Scientist

Sampriti Bhattacharyya, a 36-year-old scientist and CEO, has designed an advanced electric foiling yacht through her company Navier. Bhattacharyya, who defied expectations in her native India to pursue her passion for space and ocean exploration, aims to transform water-borne transport with self-piloting fleets. The N30 yacht, equipped with carbon foils and an advanced operating system, is 10 times more efficient than traditional gas-powered boats and offers a smooth, zero-emissions ride. Navier plans to deliver 30-50 crafts by the end of next year and hopes to expand to electric water taxis and barges in coastal cities worldwide.

Revolutionizing the Boating Industry: The 36-Year-Old Scientist's Game-Changing Foiling Boat

Sampriti Bhattacharyya, founder and CEO of Navier, a boatbuilding company, defied expectations and launched her successful venture after overcoming numerous challenges. Starting with a passion for space and robotics, she pursued internships and education in the United States, eventually founding Hydroswarm, a company that produced underwater drones. When that venture didn't pan out, she pivoted to Navier, which focuses on creating electric foiling yachts with advanced technology and an operating system that ensures a smooth ride. With $10 million in seed funding and a team of industry experts, Navier aims to revolutionize water-borne transport and alleviate congestion on roads. Bhattacharyya's ultimate goal is to introduce electric water taxis and barges in coastal cities worldwide.

Former President Donald Trump expressed his dislike for sharks during a rant against renewable energy, stating that he would choose electrocution over being attacked by a shark if he were on a sinking electric boat. However, the danger of electrocution in the water is not exclusive to electric boats, as gas-powered watercraft also have batteries that can cause electric shock drowning. Trump has a long-standing vendetta against renewable energy and a fear of sharks, as confirmed by Stormy Daniels, who claimed to have had an affair with him in 2006.

"Tesla Superchargers to Benefit GM-Owned Electric Boats and EV Drivers"

GM-owned electric boat company, Pure Watercraft, is planning to adopt the North American Charging Standard (NACS) and potentially use Tesla Superchargers for its electric boats. GM's recent agreement with Tesla will see 12,000 Supercharger locations opened to the company's EVs beginning next year and the NACS connector being standard on their cars in 2025. Pure Watercraft, which has a pontoon boat created in collaboration with GM, is developing electric vehicles for water travel and could benefit from the expansion of sustainable transportation.
